Sim Smith is happy to announce Vanessa Garwood’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, Story Circles. Vanessa Garwood’s work discover the progressive nature of matrilateral storytelling, while additionally mining the psychological dramas that unfold behind each speech and motion. Every portray turns into an investigation into the hierarchies that play out on this instinctive, unconscious world, the place the imprint of childhood wrestles with grownup wishes and modern influences.
There isn’t any ‘right’ ending, or clear morality message; as an alternative, every portray establishes a cyclical world with no starting or finish, the place allegory and narrative grow to be remodeled and, at occasions, obfuscated by play and energy. The protagonists seem caught in time and place, unbound by legal guidelines of nature, they’re suspended, but choreographed, as if in some distorted, dream-like dance, the place each mild and color seem otherworldly.
