25th April 2026 – Exhibition

Stasis Field features a selection of sculpture, work on paper and installation, offering an intimate experience that intertwines memory, transformation, and the passage of time. Prendergast uses an array of textile, chalk, stone, fabric, wool and found objects to create art that resonates on both personal and universal levels.

Since the beginning of her career, maps have been a core element of Prendergast’s practice. Reimagining maps through artistic intervention, Prendergast subverts historic symbols of power, identity and exploration, creating works that reflect more personal and emotional narratives. Included in Stasis Field are hand-coloured works which invite viewers to reflect on human connections to land, borders, and the histories they carry. Pigmented chalk, gouache and watercolour create a saturated geological installation, merging hand sculpted objects with collected cartography. In Stasis unites the physical and emotional, featuring a collection of colourful hand-painted volcanic maps, creating a kaleidoscopic reinterpretation of the peaks Chimbarazo to Mount Kenya. Through colour, the static arial views radiate an energetic sense of movement. In Comet, rust coloured string radiates from an encased roll of fabric and wool. A carefully placed pattern of stones sit on the webbed string, some like small anchors, others seemingly guiding the material further. Elsewhere against the gallery wall, a painted red branch stretches three metres high, coupled with a vibrant painted arial of Cotopaxi, Ecudaor.
