Abstract:

Short essay exploring the idea of the 'contemporary wince'; notions of awkwardness and embarrassment in contemporary painting. The writing focuses on how the materiality and facture of painting as well as imagery can articulate a feminist perspective on domesticity, precarity and motherhood. It was written to accompany Emma Roche's Spiders and Cheerleaders exhibition at The Complex, Dublin
