Lily German and Hannah Wilson seek to place hand built clay forms and paintings in compromising positions. Negotiating with narratives surrounding heaviness and the stuck. To sink is to submerge, to drop downwards. S I N K will encourage a conversation between the figurative works and abstract clay forms, focusing on the physicality of the material.
Alongside the exhibition there will be free workshops run in the space. We would like to encourage a friendly space for conversation. Please see event for details and booking for the workshops.

Making at Crossness
Since October 2016, Lily German has been working closely with Crossness. Pilgrimage and on-site field research in the form of writing, printmaking, sound recording, drawing and photography are starting points for Lily’s sculptural practice. These limited edition intaglio (etched) prints have derived from observational drawings undertaken at Crossness Pumping Station over the past few months.
See website link below for details on open days and steaming days.
I will be showing new sculpture works today at the Interim Exhibition as part of my 12 month residency at Colfe’s in London.
