Sophie Burrows: Finding Solitude
This online exhibition showcases the work of our artist-in-residence, the award-winning illustrator and author Sophie Burrows.
Three Sequences
A note from the artist
All three of the sequences I created for this project explore the theme of shared solitudes. Inspired by conversations with the Pathologies of Solitude team and reading of their research, I created visual narratives that take place in the same neighbourhood, during the Covid-19 pandemic. I explore with each of them the idea of some kind of connectedness simply through the mutual experience of being alone.
