Overview

Dorryce Rock's affection for colour is tangible. Even an image of any of her paintings will burst and churn with the energy and tension of it. In this, her second solo exhibition, Rock further develops her fascination with that particular kind of luminosity.

The exhibition features over forty bright, neon paintings. Following on from her previous experiments, Rock continues to explore the interrelationship between nature and art, while continuing to push into new media. Most of these works are paint on perspex, a form which allows her to capture the texture of the paint as it falls, preserving its chemistry and form. And following in the wake of her collaboration with fashion designer Kit Willow, Glow will also include two carpets, both paintings transformed by Designer Rugs into a new kind of tangibility.
