This exhibition is Crookes’ first solo show at QCA Galleries and brings together a collection of works created through a sustained investigation over three years of familial domestic life. Painting persists as a highly relevant means through which we understand our own ontology and Crookes uses painting to make visible, the often overlooked, sometimes funny, and sometimes difficult experiences of daily life.
The encounters of three generations are depicted through this project and while very much an investigation into Crookes’ own life and kin, their sensitivity and delicate tensions, invite reflection on our collective knowledge of family and home.
