WITH FEELING BY CHELSEA SELVAN

 

Chelsea Selvan's first solo exhibtion took place at Gallery 2 earlier this year in August. Explore a selection of works from the show.

 

Before the wind

The forest swayed

‘Like a flute heard distantly down a hillside of olives, or a voice calling to a boat from a shore'

Scatter

Into time

Into the deep

 

Remembering

Always searching

Fleeting trace

A whisper of the past

Un echo du passé

A prickly sting of memory

 

Engraved

This is how you were…

Rain in a foreign city is different from rain in a place you know

Whirlwind

Currents of air 

Lost in an edge

 

‘We are all a sun-lit moment come from a long darkness'

Limbic resonance

There is nothing you need to do right now

A seeming stillness…

Linger a little longer there

 

Inspired by intangible feelings and tangible objects, Chelsea Selvan’s work explores the fugitive nature of memory, through seemingly abstract means. Her printmaking engages fluid colour fields, some carefully graded others painterly in their rendering. These are used as a backdrop to her dynamic compositions of calligraphic mark making and floating geometric forms. These configurations are a tentative notation of her fleeting thoughts and an echo of architectural spaces that have imprinted themselves in her mental and emotional fabric. Be it their sheer materiality; a crumbling window, a rusty pressed ceiling, a corroding old door or the intangible; wind blowing through a space or the shafts of late afternoon light.

This show runs online from 31 August - 30 November 2024.
