Behind the Curtains

Lucrezia Abatzoglu, Kim Booker, Drea Cofield, Harriet Gillett, Nettle Grellier, Joline Kwakkenbos, Lorena Lohr and Abigail McGinley

14th January - 28th February

Eight female artists come together to re-write depictions of feminine sensuality, cutting ties with the predominant relationship of ‘male gaze and its muse’ that has bound the art historical canon. In between the deep red velvet curtains that swathe the walls of the gallery, a private place has been created. A inner sanctum for female pleasure, peace, and joy, reclaimed in flashes of nudity, in symbols, and soft figurative elements.
