Kate Walters and Burlington Contemporary

I have certainly been keeping busy! I was so happy to have been asked to write the gallery essay for Kate Walters’ wildly intense show Love Paintings for Arusha Gallery in Edinburgh, running from June 24 to July 24. Her work is a deep dive into the psyche and the ecstasy of divine love.

I am also exceptionally excited to have been asked to contribute to Issue 6 of the Burlington Contemporary Journal with Communist Witches and Cyborg Magic: The Emergence of Queer, Feminist, Esoteric Futurism. At a time when positive visions of the future are in short supply, it was a delight to consider artists who are pushing back on antiquated antimodernist paradigms to rethink infinite futures that we can create together.
