Setting the Scene | Jason Line: An Exhibition of Paintings & Drawings

April 14 - 29, 2023
Overview

155A GALLERY IS DELIGHTED TO PRESENT A SOLO EXHIBITION OF PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS BY JASON LINE

"Furniture – chairs and tables, are placed by the artist like props for a play. They are set at precise angles, in conference with each other, working in pairs, and passing secrets between them. They are the inanimate characters in these paintings, following an unseen script. What’s not said is almost as important as what’s said in this work. It is the gaps between objects, in spaces, that matter here. Empty chairs and empty rooms are left blank for our own interpretation."

 

Exhibition Opening Times:

April 14 - 29

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,  Saturday  11am - 6pm

Sundays 11am - 4pm

By appointment on Mondays and Tuesdays

 

International Shipping Available for all works
