Thomas Cameron | Twenty-six days a year.

8 Nov–20 Dec 2024

Twenty-six days a year is the first exhibition to examine the theme of waiting within the work of Thomas Cameron (b. 1992, UK). Combining the language of vernacular photography with the tactility of oil paint, Cameron's work is characterised by figurative paintings depicting everyday scenes of people in the city. The exhibition focuses on subjects depicted in moments of waiting and captures the understated moments in life, often spent alone and almost immediately forgotten.
