About this exhibition

theme Moontrail (Trio A), Lilac Garden (Rehearsal)

this is her first exhibition with Taka Ishii Gallery in eight years and the first since her passing, featuring works made between 2006 and 2019.

The artist

apply the ethos of props and theatrical backdrops as a distancing device, creating moonlit landscapes with subtle shifts in perspective, and using erasure as central to her practice, building up dense layers of washes and removing pigment to create negative spaces and ambiguity in pictorial space.

has held solo exhibitions at Heidelberger Kunstverein (2026); The Kunstverein in Hamburg (2024); the Renaissance Society, Chicago (2020); the Midway Contemporary Art, Minneapolis (2017); the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto (2015); the Kunsthalle Wien and the Camden Arts Centre, London (2014); the Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen (2013); the Kunstverein Munich (2010); and the Tate Britain, London (2005).
