Unfurling at The Hox Holborn
A group shows with The Blender Artists' Collective at The Hoxton Hotel Holborn
March 2026 to May 2026
The four paintings Lang has included in Unfurling continue her interest in how painting can shift the way familiar subjects are seen. Working between observation, memory and intuition, she uses colour to loosen the relationship between what is visible and what is felt.
Two of the works are flower paintings set against bright magenta grounds. Flowers recur in Lang’s practice as symbols of beauty, impermanence and renewal. In these works the heightened colour and more gestural approach allow the forms to move away from description and towards a more instinctive response.
The other two paintings are landscapes. Inspired by reading about Matisse and the Fauves, Lang experiments with colour that expresses the experience of looking rather than simply recording it. Colours drawn from nature are shifted away from what might normally be expected.
