Lisa Sanditz: Big Boy
Huxley-Parlour are delighted to announce their third solo exhibition of works by Lisa Sanditz, opening at our Swallow Street gallery in April 2025. Big Boy will present a suite of ten works on canvas which interrogate familial and generational power dynamics through a playful disruption of figurative scale, whose fraught and tender interactions mimic the fecund and fragile landscapes they inhabit.
Sanditz plays with scale, as both a narrative and formal device, to investigate the tensions of the contemporary moment. Informed by historical principles of painting, where scale has been used to create a sense of perspective and as a means to denote visual hierarchies, the artist manipulates her subjects in relation to each other and their environment. Monumental figures dominate their natural surroundings, which heightens our attention paid to the landscape, and suggests our outsized impact upon it.
