Rachel Eulena Williams
Hair and Body
26 August—19 November 2023
DCA, Dundee, UK
This major project by New York-based artist Rachel Eulena Williams will be her first major solo exhibition in a UK institution.
Wiliams’ work encompasses painting, sculpture and print making, creating bricolage pieces that unfurl across walls from large, colourful canvases which are stretched and pulled as sculptural materials. Her unorthodox approach and bold palette free painting from the rigidity of the formal canvas and traditional approaches to colour.
Her expansive, fluid works explore colour and form, framing and action painting, and her recent work has further developed into drawing, photography and video. For her exhibition at DCA she will expand her practice, creating new sculptural and painting works in the galleries.
