This exhibition will be held, in person and digitally and is the gallery’s first solo exhibition since lockdown. Swansea keenly associates the title to “the chance to at last put one’s foot on the gas, after being stopped and daydreaming outside of clock time, not knowing what day it is.”
Swansea’s paintings intricately twist and turn the paradoxical nature between location and dislocation, realism and dream, abstraction and representation. Her largely printed canvases tell a story of urban mastery, ‘slow painting’ and the humble boundaries of romantic mirages that investigate multitudinous ways to capture moments in time as they move swiftly into past time, with a hint of film-like qualities.
