White Lies - Estelle Thompson

White Lies - Estelle Thompson is an exhibition and a text. As an exhibition it is a partial survey of works produced by acclaimed British artist Estelle Thompson over the last 17 years. It brings together works on linen, aluminium, panel, and paper, and draws together central strands of her practice and lasting and recurrent obsessions within it. It draws from the wealth and richness of Thompson’s work, from chromatic monochromes, spatial block paintings, vertical stripe fuse paintings, geometrically divided and subdivided paintings, and cut paper collages. These final works, Thompson’s collages, some reduced to the size of postage stamps, have been a consistent part of her studio practice for over 10 years and are being shown publically for the first time.
