Kirsten Glass
'The painting comes into harmony, with all its elements in balance, and at the same time with its own particular temperament, holding and withholding a narrative, standing on its own two feet.'
Kirsten Glass was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland in 1975, and lives and works in London. Glass studied at Chelsea College of Art and Design (1993–96) and Goldsmiths College (1998–2000).
Her work has been exhibited extensively across the UK and abroad, including in group exhibitions at the ICA and the Barbican. Her solo exhibitions include Youthinkyoufuckinslick at Alfred Camp, London (1999); Ace Gallery, Los Angeles (1999); Hales Gallery, London (2006) and The Body in the Library, V22 Ashwin Street, London (2007) and Persephone, Queen of the Underworld (2014, Cock 'n Bull Gallery, London).
