Paula Quintela

The Shadow That Follows Me

The Shadow That Follows Me, features a new body of work by Paula Quintela that extends upon her existing provenance. Drawing from her early childhood memories in Chile, a country ruled at the time by dictatorship, she vividly recalls long and difficult years of hardship that have vehemently shaped her artistic practice today. Paula’s new works beautifully transform her reflections on her childhood and desire to express her experience of diaspora into a world of fantasy, imagination, exploration, and wonder.

The Shadow That Follows Me comprises an enthralling series of mixed-media works on paper, together with several new sculptures that draw upon her 2-dimensional motifs, bringing these unique characters to life.

Opening event 17 May, 5pm–7pm.
