GEORGIA SPAIN
And suddenly, an iceberg

‘And suddenly, an iceberg’ explores language, mythologies, grief, time and the slipperiness of memory. About this body of work, Georgia shares: “I felt a deep desire to turn inwards. That desire became the current running through this body of work — a process of mark making, writing, excavating and unearthing, and most importantly allowing the work to reveal itself. It is both story and evidence — a diaristic trace of what it means to feel deeply, to be uncertain, to live in the wake of longing or sorrow…”

KATE MITCHELL
Big Hag NRG

‘Big Hag NRG’ reclaims the figure of the hag as an older woman who sits beyond the usefulness of patriarchy and is therefore powerful, unruly, and free. The exhibition gathers spell-objects that appear still, yet are charged with action, energy, and presence.
