Painting: Craddock

Other Spaces

Maysey Craddock’s work references objects and spaces that continue their slow transformation after they’ve been abandoned. Rooted on the edges of our world, these thin spaces quietly pulse with a kind of murmuring remembrance. Her paintings seek to reflect the narrative of this transition.

The images in this body of work originate in the crossroads between culture’s traces and nature’s reclamation—a palimpsest at the edges of civilization. These other spaces, liminal and ephemeral, are markers of a landscape of change and of the traces of experience that remain in the world. They are like pieces of mirror, reflecting chased dreams and those forgotten along the way.
