‘Distillation’
is the largest and most comprehensive collection of work by the artist Shani Rhys James, who is widely recognised for her powerful figurative paintings. This exhibition brings together the whole range of her astounding, award winning paintings, with the early prize winning paintings displayed alongside the artist’s latest developments. It is a selection of chosen pieces from museums and private collectors; a distillation of 30 years work on the themes of family, self, childhood, interiors and relationships.
