Free exhibition by Walter Wall of paintings and text linked in enigmatic associations, viewable from the street until 5 January 2027.
Walter Wall is showing at Colonnade House from Monday 21 to Wednesday 23 December, with the exhibition remaining viewable from the street until 5 January. It's a short run, so if you want to step inside and see it properly, you'll need to catch it during those first three days.
Wall works with both image and text, and the two are linked in a loose, often enigmatic association that teases out meaning and thought. He describes play as an integral part of his creativity: he messes about with paint and different techniques to expand his visual imagery, and plays with language too, sometimes to trigger the creative process and other times to develop ideas further. When the imagery and the words come together, they don't always fit neatly, and that's part of the point.
He talks about painting as something stimulating and good for the soul, and encourages people to chill, not worry about the outcome, and just get stuck in and play. That's the spirit behind the work, too — the kind of thing that asks you to slow down and let the images and words do their thing rather than trying to figure it all out at once.
