Presented in the Pigott Gallery and extending into the surrounding landscape, Eva Rothschild’s exhibition at Goodwood Art Foundation brings together key sculptural works alongside a pair of newly commissioned large-scale tapestries, woven locally at West Dean College’s Tapestry Studio. This continues Rothschild’s long-standing collaboration with the studio, following earlier projects for Sadler’s Wells East. Textile works have long been integral to her practice, allowing her to translate geometric imagery and vivid, neon colour into tactile three-dimensional form. As Rothschild explains, “weaving as a way of making images works for me because of the uncertainty of surface and because the image avoids becoming fixed”.

Rothschild’s Pigott Gallery presentation exemplifies her distinctive visual language of geometric and serial forms. Outdoors, a group of sculptures explores colour and architectural form in dialogue with the landscape. Whether composed of interlocking beams or cast concrete blocks, these works engage surface and space to evoke ideas of borders, restriction and urban tension.
