Going South Exhibition catalogue




​My recent, Going South exhibition, in Somerset House, London in June 2015 was the concluding event to my Leverhulme artist’s residency in the Department of War Studies at King’s College London in 2014/2015.  Going South is an ongoing painting project which is predicated on a set of journeys I have made and will make to the southern ‘edge of the skirt of the world’. This metaphor marks a set of engagements with the coastal and mountainous landscapes of New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Argentina and Chile and a subversive sensibility that troubles the patriarchal assumptions of the tradition of sublime landscape painting. In so doing my painting practice registers the impact of an unnamed and repressed, but sexuate discourse, through which I have struggled to perform myself as an improper subject of the landscape, looking back at those histories of painting in which female agency and desire have no place, and forwards toward a time when they do.
​
I will complete this project in 2016 and am looking to exhibit a selection of paintings from this body of work in 2017 or 2018. This website contains more information, more images, including three catalogues:  Coming Alive 2013; Taking Risks 2014 & Going South 2015 and my CV.
