Centred on a series of 2-person painting projects at Kingsgate which ran through 2023, the book begins with new writing commissioned in response to each exhibition. The book the widens its focus with three further essays which attempt to think about how we make and look at painting today, in our moment of painting ubiquity complicated by an anxiety of looking. Particular focus is given to the way that painters look differently at paintings, often by reading the actions and decisions involved in painting-making.
