We're thrilled to present 'The Geometry of Longing', Laura Jones's first solo show at CHALK HORSE since 2015. The opening reception will be held on Nov 2 from 6-8pm and the show will continue until Nov 25.
The 'Geometry of Longing' is about the clash between the natural world and human emotion. The small picture of domestic life meets the big picture of the sublime. They eat at each other, not always happily. Ageing bodies in ageless landscapes. Intimacy and anonymity. Connection and solitude. The city hitting the country. Laura Jones casts her eye past the bloody obvious to see the vulnerability in mundane events and settings. Therein lies doubt. But also wonder. The night comes. Then we wake up and make sense of what may or may not be the case.
