Exhibition documentation by Ruth Clark
“Undoing it is an exhibition that focuses on the creative process itself. For Ciara Phillips, making art offers an opportunity to think and think again, to both do and undo simultaneously.

By scraping, rubbing and pressing wood, copper, nylon and paper, Phillips creates a printed record of recent thoughts and actions.
