Glasgow artist Lorraine Hamilton’s first solo show opens at the New Glasgow Society on the 1st March and runs until the 3rd. Hamilton is a recent graduate from the Master of Letters at Glasgow School of Art and winner of the John Byrne Award 2023.
Hamilton makes sculptural work that explores the relationship between her neurodivergence and how it impacts sensory experience and emotion.
This new body of work titled Umwelt describes the world as it is experienced from different perspectives.
This exhibition invites you to step into a shared landscape, where different realities and ways of experiencing time intertwine. The objects here evolve and transform with each passing breath, alive and shifting like the world around us.
A select group of sensual materials are at play: sticky dripping goo, clay that moulds at your fingertips, perfumed smoke and water, corroding metal . Each has a process that can be activated by the artist or viewer through touch and sight, feeling our way between fascination and fear, between attraction and repulsion. Wanting to look away from the rot as we put our finger in it.
Umwelt is a sensory portal that embraces the constant shifts of life, where impermanence meets infinity. As stone surrenders to sand and ice melts into a river, the materials here ask: can we see the ending as a new beginning?
