Darren Knight Gallery and The Renshaws warmly invite you to celebrate the opening of Ecstatic horizon, a new exhibition by Louise Weaver.
Ecstatic horizon features woven paintings combining hand-painted Japanese paper and linen thread, creating a rich dialogue between poetic landscape and vivid abstraction. Weaver’s practice is shaped by the fragility and rhythms of the natural world, exploring environmental, social, and feminist themes. Her orchestration of colour, texture and structure reveals an intricate interplay of order and chance—a universe of delicate, imagined beauty.
The exhibition is dedicated to her father, Barry Weaver (1934–2025).
