Lydia Gifford
Lydia Gifford (UK, 1979) lives and works in London. She works with painting and sculpture. She uses paint to transform a wide array of textiles in the service of abstract minimalist works with surfaces that are often craggy, layered, and twisted. One of the key elements of Lydia’s art is the relation between her works and the surroundings, a relation that creates a sort of game between absence and affirmation, a subltle negotiation, like a silent music composition.
Her work has been exposed in many solo and group shows such as: Malborough, London (2023); Martin Z. Margulies Foundation, NYFA (2021); Super Dakota, Bruxelles (2018); Centre International d’Art et du Paysage, Ile de Vassiviere, France (2016); Laura Bartlett Gallery, London (2015); Kunsthaus Baselland, Basel, (2013); David Roberts Art Foundation, London (2012); Galerie Micky Schubert, Berlin (2012).
