Kate Palmer

Against The Skin

Kate Palmer (MA Royal College of Art) has just completed a two-year residency at Trinity College Cambridge where she has been creating a series of remarkable paintings and drawings. This exhibition at Broadbent in Notting Hill represents the culmination of this work and is running in parallel with a show in the Wren Library, Trinity College, Cambridge. (14 - 21 November)

"In these paintings there is no horizon, no end, no vanishing point, no bound space or recognizable place. Wherever a shape, a depth or an acceleration appears, the eye also notices work on the surface: scratches, rubbings incisions, circular traces of labouring through the thickness of the paint. Moving closer, localised events unfold to the point when one wants to touch the surface and acknowledge its tactile quality."

This is a great show of an artist who has made her mark on the art world with this stunning selection of paintings and drawings.
