Bo Lee and Workman: Kathryn Maple ‘Beneath the Swamp Cypress’

25 April - 10 May

Bo Lee and Workman, based in Bruton, Somerset, present Beneath the Swamp Cypress, a solo exhibition of work by Kathryn Maple. As if submerged by nature, Maple’s landscapes, fresh with a sense of discovery and vibrancy, bring us closer to the forms at the essence of the natural world. Captivated by the lumps and clusters found in nature, this group of paintings takes these obscure forms and their environment as its starting point, experimenting with the depiction of their individual and collective potential. Abstract and surreal yet distinctively intimate, the striking ‘knee’ like structures interact and develop relationships as Maples verdant forms erupt in a chorus of conversation.
