Drawing Boundaries

Drawing Boundaries

Gerald Moore Gallery is delighted to present Drawing Boundaries with works by Rebecca Griffiths, Emily Snell and Beth Luxton on the theme of boundaries. Boundaries create edges and mark a limit - they separate our inner and outer experience of the world and determine our bodies, objects and place in space. They make us feel safe whilst enabling invention and play. The theme of boundaries has been more significant than ever since the pandemic – we have had to redraw the boundaries between our private and public selves, and re-negotiate the boundaries that determine our physical world and our connection to other bodies.

The work in this exhibition will explore this theme in playful ways, asking: What happens when things spill out and refuse to be contained? What happens when boundaries break or edges dissolve? How do we hold things together, or break walls apart? Working between sculpture, ceramics, drawing, digital animation and installation, the artists in this exhibition explore boundaries through an engagement with the tactile, transformative and fluid nature of materials.
