Jenny Watson: Chronicles

Jenny Watson: Chronicles

‘Jenny Watson: Chronicles’ takes a thematic approach to Watson’s practice, focusing on the prevalence of text throughout her career and the powerful role it has played in composing her highly personal narratives chronicling the interior life.

Encompassing defining moments and palpable influences on Watson’s practice— including conceptual art, literary archetypes, feminism, and punk subculture—these works exemplify an oeuvre that is often confrontational in theme and intent, but always intimately connected to the artist’s innermost thoughts and contemplations.
