Inspired by unrecognisable soundscapes that leave you to dream into their possibilities, My works are an attempt to contemplate what can be seen in darkness - what shapes, colours and Imaginings happen in the gloom – and to think of inside/outside as it relates to both the literal interior space, but also what is within or what is outside of understanding. I relate this to experiences of personal histories and future imaginings, where not knowing leaves an uneasy space that feels unstable and fragile. “Can I be haunted by unknown ghosts?” In my paintings, windows are empty of light and view. Objects sit unsettled and rooms lie vacant, as if anticipating or recovering from something just out of sight. The paint is applied in thin layers that slowly build up into blurry shapes and moments of definition. The Canvas is primed but not sanded, meaning that the texture left adds to the impression that you are looking at something just out of focus, resisting your gaze.

United Kingdom
Eleanor Cox works across sound, film, writing and painting. Her works are led by a steady research into ideas of what it is to not understand or to be left without certainty. Following a sense that there is something kind within the unknown. That the unease felt when without ‘knowing’ is an opening that might allow for a reconsideration/reorientation. It is a sense that discomfort can be kind. Possibly caring, although always also potentially not. As a body tries to orient itself in the dark a silence brims with ingrained assumptions, now unravelling into searching questions. Inspired by unrecognisable soundscapes that leave you to dream into their possibilities, Eleanor’s oil paintings are an attempt to contemplate what can be seen in darkness - what shapes, colours and Imaginings happen in the gloom – and to think of inside/outside as it relates to both the literal interior space, but also what is within or what is outside of understanding. Windows are empty of light and view, objects sit unsettled, while rooms lie empty as if anticipating or recovering from something no longer there.
