The Quiet Empty Quarter
Rafael Othmane
Eight desert paintings worked entirely from memory.

Iris Vermeer-Hale's seventh solo exhibition at Maison Orel gathers eleven new paintings made over thirty-one months in a converted lime kiln on the Kent coast. The work continues her enquiry into horizon, sediment and the long held breath — surfaces built up in oil, wax and ground pigment, the way a stone wall is built.

Eight desert paintings worked entirely from memory.

Ten years of mixed-media reliefs, gathered in one room.

A retrospective of forty years on a single sheet of paper.
