Natasha MacVoy: Eye Witness


A solo exhibition featuring recent works by Gloucestershire-based artist Natasha MacVoy who works across sculpture, film, performance and text.

Eye Witness showcases an approach to art making, research and language that probes the assumption that we understand what we see. Throughout her practice, Natasha explores ideas and motifs that relate to invisible labour, care and neurodiversity, realising these through the playful use of doubling, repetition, and the considered use of close-at-hand materials.

In an expanded video installation, site-specific interventions, sculpture, drawing and further film based works, the artist explores her own lived experiences; the various ways she has rehearsed, adapted, and changed the fabric of the world, in order to provide an invisible support structure for her neurodivergent children. Simultaneously, she highlights universal experiences based on our perception of space, the passage of time, processes of making, and how we might gather, hold, and return to our thoughts.
