Ruth Murray – Everything is Green

Contemporary Art Exhibitions

Ruth Murray – Everything is Green

An exhibition named after a David Foster Wallace short story – a story of loss and self-deception, of standing at the kitchen window, contemplating the view.

These paintings of women, mostly in domestic interiors, are saturated by coloured light. In ‘Everything is Green’, the window frames a scene of well worn familiarity, the view from the artist’s front room in Gorton. We see this repeated in other paintings around the room. It’s a very human-centric point of view, but you are not sheltered from the wider world - you are the one trapped inside. Reality still surrounds you just outside the window. Join us for opening night on Thursday 10 February at 7pm.
