Rachel Goodyear: Stirrings
15 July 2022 – 26 February 2023
Salford Museum & Art Gallery
Stirrings is a major solo exhibition by internationally recognised north-west based artist Rachel Goodyear. It has been co-commissioned by Grundy Art Gallery and the University of Salford Art Collection and includes new large-scale drawings and a new animation, alongside a selection of existing drawings. While the animation shows Goodyear experimenting with structure and sound, the new works on paper see the artist working at a scale larger than ever before.
