The Dining Room Table: Thérèse Mulgrew at PIERMARQ* Gallery 20 March – 19 April 2025
PIERMARQ is pleased to present: The Dining Room Table, an exhibition of new work by Chicago-based artist Thérèse Mulgrew.
This is Mulgrew’s first exhibition at PIERMARQ* in Sydney.
Thérèse Mulgrew’s works of oil on canvas explore the complexity of vulnerability and desire, transforming personal experiences into visual narratives. Mulgrew’s style is defined by the formal elements of composition and lighting, creating an atmosphere that resonates with cinematic tension. Each painting presents a delicate exploration of connection and solitude, where fleeting moments of interaction are imbued with emotional depth and unspoken stories.
Mulgrew’s exhibition, The Dining Room Table, offers a contemporary reinterpretation of the still- life genre, focusing on the ritualistic and communal aspects of dining. Depictions of lavish spreads and refined tableware set against rich, textured tablecloths, not only celebrate the aesthetic qualities of dining but evoke the sensory experiences associated with shared moments at the table.
