‘She Danced Beneath the Weight of the Clouds’ by Olivia Dunn ASGFA

31st October 2026 – 6pm online release

The Gallery is delighted to present a new and intimate collection of original works by the remarkable Olivia Dunn.

Olivia, draws deeply from the surrounding landscape, grounding her compositions in the natural environment that informs her practice. This body of work speaks with both joy and resilience, an exploration of endurance shaped by the persistent weight of societal expectations placed upon young girls and women. Her works, are rooted in the landscapes of North Yorkshire, are threaded with the recurring presence of clouds. These forms are not merely atmospheric; they carry symbolic weight, embodying both personal experience and the shared burdens passed through generations.
