​
Cleavers practice has looked into the idea of expanding paintings, integrating research crossing reworked materials, domestic objects and staged paintings. She actively considers the site and curatorial handling of all parts of her work and enjoys involving collaboration.
[ The residency ]
​
Cleavers recent work has explored the idea of using different structures and creating playful forms of gesture, producing sculptural paintings using selective found materials and always with specific colour palettes.
​
For the final chapter in her Pressure Cooker, Soup PtVI residency, Molly will be drawing on new and current pieces, her lively work will be supplemented by free prints - available to the first visitors!
​
There will also be live music fromConnor Hemming.
