A solo exhibition of paintings and drawings on the theme of exploration, at home and abroad.

All the works reveal new territory for the artist: either from personal travels and walking, or from a new viewpoint of her favoured subject, the Thames.

The London paintings bear witness to the chaotic transience of the city’s jostling skyline, where old cornerstones are eclipsed by 'iconic' new arrivals. But these in turn provide dramatic vantage points from which to reassess our familiar surroundings, opening a dialogue of reciprocal panoramas across the river.

As well as her trademark urban landscapes, this wide-ranging show includes paintings of France, New Zealand, Scotland and the ancient route of the Ridgeway.
