SUMMARY:'Distant blues\, from a little closer' by Olivia Gates
DESCRIPTION:‘Lost really has two disparate meanings. Losing things is about the familiar falling away\, getting lost is about the unfamiliar appearing… Or you get lost\, in which case the world has become larger than your knowledge of it.’\n– Rebecca Solnit\, A Field Guide to Getting Lost (2006) \nDistant blues\, from a little closer is Gates’ first solo exhibition. The works navigate experiences of losing\, loss and being lost\, while tracing moments of great love and joy that weave through them. \nThe exhibition brings together works developed during her residency at M16 Art Space this year\, alongside a return to textiles after a decade-long focus on glass. Rather than seeking resolution\, the works wander without the need for certainty. The materials hold grounding memories and hope for a once imagined life. They linger with things that feel distant. A quiet pull between leaving something unknown or letting it become familiar. \nImage: Olivia Gates\, ‘elation’\, 2025\, cyanotype on paper\, 90 x 60cm. Photo courtesy of the artist.
