Rowan Corkill – solo show.

‘Centaurs and Lapiths’ takes the Centaur as a central figure of duality: human and animal, restraint and instinct, belonging and otherness. Drawing from Ovid’s Metamorphoses and the Centauromachy conflict between centaurs and Lapiths, Corkill engages a myth shaped by tension and excess. The centaur, neither fully one thing nor another, operates here as a metaphor for the complexity of inhabiting multiple, sometimes contradictory, aspects of the self. The exhibition positions metamorphosis as an ongoing condition,  proposing identity as composite and unstable, shaped by myth, memory, and material, perpetually in the act of becoming. Identity is layered and composite, formed through attachment, projection, and cultural narrative, held in tension rather than fixed in place.
