End to End

Overview

Louis Grant is an early career glass artist specialising in kiln formed and cold worked glass, with new work in neon.

In this exhibition of new work by Louis Grant and curated by Consuelo Cavaniglia, he draws on formalist principles of shape, scale, colour and composition to create a series of sculptural scenarios that use the language of materials to speak of connection, reliance and resistance between forms. Glass's inherent instability -its disorganised particles and resistance to fixed form- serves as a powerful metaphor for fluidity and queer embodiment. In connected installations across the gallery spaces, Grant presents forms of 'staging', activating the performativity of glass.
