Bigger Pleasures

‘Nosebleed (3)’ is the latest in a series of paintings focusing on nosebleeds in cinema - a nod to the body’s tendency for melodrama.

Hannah Wilson (b.1995) is a painter based in Glasgow whose practice focuses on the body; paying attention to the cinematic. Wilson’s figures take up space on the canvas through an (often uncomfortable) method of cropping. Often little is depicted but the paintings remain animated and hint at rich worlds beyond an initial reading.
