Alice Wilson: ISLAND

Preview Wednesday 18th September 6-8:30pm

JGM Gallery presents a solo installation by painter and sculptor, Alice Wilson. Wilson works with construction timber, plaster, photography, paint and often improvises with materials to realise ideas. Landscape is used in Wilson’s practice as a medium through which to discuss concerns with experience, access and expectation.
