In the Making: Phoebe Evans, Oliver Hoffmeister, Sophie Lourdes Knight, Or Lapid, Leon Scott-Engel

1 March - 4 April 2023

In the Making brings together different ways of creating and thinking, in a celebration of the complexities that inform the artistic process. Each of the five exhibiting artists interrogate everyday experiences, focusing on the transformative power of painting to question and reflect upon our perception of the world around us. Whilst artworks are often considered isolated from their method of making, this exhibition will focus on the value of the process itself.

 

The journey towards representation is filled with failures and surprises, an ebb and flow of conflict and resolution between the artist and their work. The artists in this exhibition embrace the challenges and revelations that occur in the process of making, cultivating a practice wherein their finished object is one with a history. In the Making provides an opportunity to reflect upon the possibilities of paint, and spotlights some of the intricacies within artistic practice.
