‘Beyond Solitude’ is the first solo show of Giulietta Coates at BBA Gallery. The exhibition represents a body of work spanning the last 4 years. Black and white photographic fragments of landscapes, embedded in wood, stand for the longing of what is unreachable and for things to be different. The expansive mountainous landscapes of Haute Provence where absolute solitude resounds, informs the works within ‘Beyond Solitude’. Reconstructions of landscapes exude a melancholic beauty of world within worlds, and longings that have philosophical, material, personal and collective origins. Giulietta Coates has lived in Haute Provence for the past 15 years.
