About
NIHIL or The Nothingness of our Existence
A solo show by Clementine McGaw
15th Sept - 6th Oct 2015
In her new solo show at Westminster Reference Library, McGaw questions and explores the potentiality of our own existence through paint. The paintings are treated as sacred human and non-human objects through which the artist relates to flesh and its nothingness.
The series of works is inspired by the writings of Julia Kristeva, Darian Leader and by Giorgio Agamben’ theory of potentiality.
‘..the painful realisation that the object already contains the possibility of its non-existence. A nothingness is created’
Darian Leader
