Jessica Pearless’ Paintress is a vibrant expression of abstraction, bringing together colour, form and movement in an exhibition that considers abstraction as a visual language and way of experiencing and engaging with the world.
Paintress explores relationships between body, material and the creative process. Drawing on decades of artistic practice, Pearless’ works in painting, textile and installation invite contemplation, activation and exchange. Her Wearable Abstraxtions, created from carefully collected and repurposed textiles, transform geometric abstraction into dynamic works that shift between artwork, garment and performance.
Throughout the exhibition, a programme of talks, activations and community events extends these conversations beyond the gallery walls — creating opportunities to encounter abstract art through multiple perspectives. Building on Pearless’ ongoing ABSTRAXT ABSTRAXT Project, these events invite audiences to explore the enduring vitality and possibility of abstraction in contemporary art today.
