Pairs
Group Show
4 – 20 September 2025

Benjamin Cotter Dephoff, James Watkins, Esme Lansdowne, Emma Hercus, and Jess Swney

Brought together under the title of Pairs, this exhibition unfolds as a series of conversations between two works by each artist — pieces chosen for the way they sit together, share a rhythm, or gently contrast. Side by side, they offer a glimpse into the shifts and continuities within a practice: a change in light, a deepened idea, a return to a familiar form.

Featuring Benjamin Cotter Dephoff, James Watkins, Esme Lansdowne, Emma Hercus, and Jess Swney, the show spans oil painting, earth pigments, and rug tufting. Each pairing invites a slower look — to notice echoes, tensions, and harmonies that emerge when works meet, and to witness the new meanings they create together.
