We are pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition Longing/Belonging by Christchurch based artist, Jillian Worsdworth.

This body of work is an intimate, personal, and tender response, where personal histories and traumas are explored through questions about how identity is formed and crafted, layer upon layer. The exhibition opens at 5:30pm on Friday 29 November.

In addition to the opening, Jillian is also giving two artist talks on Saturday 30 November: one at Magenta Creative Space at 10:00am, and the second at ATELIER Studio|Gallery at 12:30pm.

Jillian Wordsworth’s practice is one of ‘slow art’, which she describes as providing a quietude, a sanctuary for reflection and introspection. She invites viewers to look beyond the surface and explore boundaries between physical and metaphysical realms. In this body of work, Wordsworth moves beyond the representational form of the land, to explore history and experience of place,. Through the repetitive qualities of her practice, she invites viewers to contemplate complexities of belonging.
