Jacqui Hallum

Berber

Jacqui Hallum will be in conversation with curator Dan Howard-Birt discussing their recent series of exhibitions and her wider practice.

Jacqui Hallum’s paintings draw on imagery ranging from medieval woodcuts and leaded glass windows to tarot cards and Art Nouveau children’s book illustrations. She works across a number of loose cotton sheets, staining and dying them with drawing ink, graffiti ink and squid ink. The sheets move between Hallum’s studio and garden throughout this process, before they are grouped and pinned together, concealing and revealing themselves to create a multi-part work.

Venue: Exeter Phoenix, Studio 74
