Contemporary Lynx is a proud media partner of the “Where the Light Won’t Reach“, a solo exhibition of works by interdisciplinary artist Lulu MacDonald. The exhibition takes place at SIC! Gallery until 31st May.
It tells a tale of growing in darkness, beyond the reach of sight, on thresholds of control and visibility. The wellspring for the exhibition was the Rhubarb Triangle, an area in West Yorkshire where rhubarb is grown in absolute darkness and later harvested by candlelight.
The work of Lulu MacDonald (b. 1991, United Kingdom) is holistic and suffused with fantasy. Her works are multidisciplinary, immersive installations that have been described as “jewelry for architecture.” The artist’s sculptures give the impression of emerging from architectural structures, breaking through the soil’s surface, and disrupting order, in the process changing the way we perceive our surroundings.
MacDonald works with space contextually, connecting narrative to contemporaneous scientific discoveries. In her artistic practice, she uses the mediums of metal, glass, and ceramics (sculptures, installations), textile (clothing design), and graphics, introducing the art world to a novel way of thinking about stained glass that transcends the frame of a glass image.
