INTIMATIONS

Intimations, is a group exhibition that considers intimation as a way of working, thinking and making wherein affinities grow and conjoin across visual, material or thematic differences. About An intimation is an indication or hint. It is a slippery concept; it is indirect, sidling up to ideas, rather than charging at them head-on. The artists included in Intimations use visual, verbal, material and textural matter that make connections between people, places, and personal memories. None of the artists do this in ways that are explicit, they rely instead on processes of evocation, suggestion, and intimation. To intimate is to stray in a roundabout way from there to here to (another) there. To intimate is to let slip affinities, to discover that one thought finds traction in an unexpected other, or that the weight of one might be held by the form of another. Intimations are a soft double exposure where the after-life of an image lingers, becoming one as well as the other, both more than the sum of their parts. (Lizzie Lloyd 2026) Intimations , is a group exhibition that considers intimation as a way of working, thinking and making wherein affinities grow and conjoin across visual, material or thematic differences. It asks how visual, material or conceptual ambiguity might describe our encounters with art and the world. It teases out unexpected kinships across the work of eight artists working in painting, sculpture and photography, whose practices move between figuration and abstraction, idea and image. The exhibition was co-curated by Lizzie Lloyd and Matt Burrows. Read more Toggle Painting Mixed media Installation Sculpture Photography
