CRG Gallery, New York
In Siobhan Liddell’s recent works at CRG gallery she explores what moves in stillness. Using thread Liddell draws topographical place in the space between two walls. The physicality comes to appearance in the moving back and forth in time and space. The straight lines create curves. Static threads shift perspective and play with perception. A place to sit is offered.
"is it the water that shapes the land or the land that shapes the water"

In Siobhan Liddell’s recent works at CRG gallery she explores what moves in
stillness. Using thread Liddell draws topographical place in the space
between
two walls.
The physicality comes to appearance in the moving back and forth in
time and space. The straight lines create curves. Static threads shift
perspective
and play with perception. A place to sit
is offered.
Also included are large works on paper. Markings of time, traces of place
and
memory , impelled by the act of looking.
"Himalaya" resonates the reflective
glow of the setting sun on the snow capped mountains. The drawings depict
what moves forward in silence. The moons’ movements, the suns’ rays, the edges
of the body against the vast universe.
A group of older drawings accompany the current works, each informing the
other. These earlier drawings refer to architecture, community and town
planning.
Liddell writes - It is funny, when I am walking my thoughts are free, not
attached.
So to walk is to let what moves inside float to the surface and be released. I
have
to conclude, then, that walking is what made these drawings - forever on my way...
