STILL AND ALWAYS features a suite of new works from Elizabeth Thomson alongside a selection of earlier works from her personal archive. Like a series of underground taproots – tendrils simultaneously stretching back into the past while reaching towards the future – this exhibition traces those formative experiences and burgeoning ideas that have continued to propagate throughout the artist’s decades long practice.

Thomson’s work is deeply embedded in the landscape, with the artist often drawing upon cellular and aerial photographic imagery to highlight the inherent patterns and structures found in nature, and conversely, in celebration of its sublime and constituent chaos. Works often recall Thomson’s real-life expeditions across great expanses of terra firma or navigating vast bodies of foreign water, but they also act as backdrops for the artist’s own inner voyage through the volatile terrain of her own memory and subconscious.
