Dead Reckoning
Curated by Gordon Dalton, 1st September - 17th October 2020
Hope Amid the Cynicism - Dead Reckoning is the process of calculating your direction by using a previously determined position. It is thought that Dutch sailors threw dead bodies overboard to calculate their future route.
Dead Reckoning was a mid-COVID solo-exhibition at The Auxiliary showcasing the work of contemporary British painter Gordon Dalton. His works combine memories and motifs of places the artist has passing, tangible or imagined experiences with. A combination of memories which create ever-shifting landscapes that sit in the melancholy of longing and wanting to belong.
