Grace Weaver

On view in the staircase is a series of collages by American artist Grace Weaver, renowned for her figurative paintings and drawings that balance intimacy with bold formalism. The series originated during Weaver’s travels in Morocco, where she first developed her collage approach, and in Ireland where her work was inspired by James Joyce and the magpie-esque aspect of his writing process. Created using collected materials – candy wrappers, book covers, church programs, menus, postcards – the pieces are modest in scale yet rich in layered associations, intertwining personal narrative with broader reflections on place and time.

This exhibition has been made possible through the generous support of D’Lan Contemporary, Karma Gallery, JGM Gallery, and Max Hetzler, whose loaned works have been integral in bringing the show to fruition. Appreciation is also extended to Grace Weaver, featured in the concurrent exhibition.
