The Void Presses The Wall is a major exhibition by London-based Irish artist Eva Rothschild, whose work grows out of a commitment to sculpture’s capacity to create bodily encounters in space. Her sculptures are born of the city and redolent of the urban landscape. Some, cast or constructed in bronze, plaster or steel, are supported on plinths, ‘behaving’ like sculptures ‘should’, while others stretch, twist, balance, or form whole environments in concrete, polystyrene, cotton and canvas that the viewer must negotiate. Her work creates a constant push-and-pull of the power dynamic between audience and object, drawing attention to how we occupy space.
Supported by the Henry Moore Foundation, and the generosity of the Eva Rothschild Supporter’s Circle.
