27 Jan-24 Mar 2012

Draf (david Roberts Art Foundation)
London NW1 7JE

Overview

"Varying degrees of presence lead to different strengths of voice, tensions. The intimate is measured and restrained. A library of nuance is taken from a private studio activity, to a public site, a public moment. Halfway objects provide a starting point. Things come into being in their very utterance, emerging through the telling. I question which of my actions 'hold' their own, what can stay. Some insist, some withdraw. The work sits on the boundary of completion, where tenses co-exist." - Lydia Gifford , 2011 Lydia Gifford (b.1979, U.K.) lives and works in London. Media partner: Aesthetica Magazine
