‘The Unveiling’ - Lara Gilks

“For the last 20 years I have visited the same remote areas – such as bays in the Marlborough Sounds or rivers in the deep south. There are dark corners, willowed rivers, eery deep water, haunting forests. They have always felt to me like places where spirits reside, there is a heaviness to them.

They are both deeply peaceful but chilling and unnerving. These works were borne out of many visits to those places. There is a precipice between the eery depths, the haunting forest, the fading leaves - what lies beneath the surface, behind the trees and how they come together into the physical and spiritual landscape.

The works draw out that spiritual landscape by draping fabric - to give shape to and surface it – drawing spirits from the watery depths and out of the leafy darkness. A shroud to give shape to what we cannot see with the eye. There are different moods, some billow, some drape, some sit easy, some anxious to leave…”
