21 November 2024 – 8 February 2025
Opening Reception: Thursday 21 November, 6 - 8 pm
Maximillian William is delighted to present ‘Triple Threat’, an exhibition of drawings by British artist Somaya Critchlow curated by Hilton Als.
Comprising a selection of over 40 new works on paper (2023-2024), ‘Triple Threat’ is the artist’s first exhibition to focus solely on drawing. Working in graphite pencil, ink with a brush, or traditional Japanese glass dip pen, images are composed and repeated with the delicate immediacy of memoranda, yet retain their own unique sense of place and narrative. The result is a wide-ranging series of drawings that serve as both ends in themselves and living dialogues.
Als shares his reflections in a new piece of writing for the exhibition, available in an illustrated accompanying publication.
