Yvonne Cavanagh: Liminal Space

Yvonne Cavanagh’s work explores the inability to control the circumstances of life through abstraction, using tactile physicality to document ideas of grief, sudden aberration, and an incapability of control. Liminal Space includes vessels that solidify the very moment of collapse, as well as drawings that embody transient marks of loss, both on the physical and emotional ground. Presented together, these bodies of work seek to encapsulate the internal struggle that envelops someone after a seminal tragedy and the liminal space which is occupied while transitioning to a new experience.
