2022, Spirals at London House
In 2022, I made a series of nineteen works for a solo exhibition at Kunsthaus Glarus, each depicting the same spiral form across a range of formats, from 20 × 30 cm to 170 × 270 cm. At the time, I was living in London, at the Hessische Kulturstiftung’s studio residence—a classic Georgian terraced house in Bow that served as both my home and my studio.
After finishing the paintings, I thought it would be a nice idea to show them in the house first, before shipping them to Glarus—partly to share them with people who wouldn’t be able to see the exhibition, and partly to see how the works responded to a completely different kind of architecture than the one they were originally intended for. The series had been conceived with a white-cube setting in mind, but since they had been created in a domestic space, I was curious how they would behave in a radically different environment.
On July 16, 2022, I hung the works throughout every room of the house and invited people over. The following photographs document that day, taken with a 35mm point-and-shoot camera. Through that experience, I realized that the series is enriched by being shown in multiple contexts—and that the context, in fact, plays a fundamental role in how these paintings function and the meaning they convey. The Spirals reflect the light of their surroundings and engage in a different dialogue with each environment they inhabit.
