Location: Butler Gallery, Evans’ Home
Butler Gallery, in association with Kilkenny Arts Festival, is very pleased to present Deep Time Dip by Liane Lang, a German-born, London-based visual artist who explores time and memory through monuments and historic landscape in her mixed-media practice.
Lang approaches this history with an eye to deep time and constant change. The mixture of material fascination and fragmented storytelling allows us to contemplate our actions in the landscape differently, as we prepare for the cataclysmic changes we must now make globally in how things are made and done. Lang explores a unique space between sculpture and photography, drawing together a material, haptic experience and the narrative and time-related language of photography.

Lang studied at National College of Art and Design in Dublin, took a BA in Fine Art at Goldsmiths College, London, and an MFA at the Royal Academy Schools, London, graduating in 2006. She lives and works in the East End of London. Lang has exhibited widely both in the UK and internationally, including the Royal Academy of Arts, London; Musée de Beaux Arts Calais; PS1 New York; Kunstwerke, Berlin; James Freeman Gallery, London; the Wirksworth Festival, Derbyshire and the Museo Guggenheim, Bilbao. Her most recent exhibition, Touch Stone, was on view at the Whitaker Museum, Rossendale, UK in March 2024.
