12.7.24 - Caragh Thuring elected as a Royal Academician
Congratulations to Caragh Thuring who has been elected as a Royal Academician in the category of Painting by The Royal Academy of Arts.
Thuring works with painting, drawing, weaving and photography. She builds and arranges layered imagery in opposition to traditional visual and logical hierarchies. Painting the overlooked and the out of sight, Thuring is curious to what lies beneath the surface. Filtering landscape, people, places, boundaries and territories, she interweaves the technological and human: volcanoes, submarines and bricks appear viscerally or bodily whilst emphasising the clash between the natural and the manufactured.
A major monograph on Thuring's work, entitled Very Fantastically Arranged, was published by The MIT Press in 2023. Further information
