SUMMARY:Thomas Dillon: The Raw and the Cooked
DESCRIPTION:This is Dillon’s first solo exhibition in Dubai; and it is claimed to be a milestone in the artist’s career\, featuring a body of work conceived and created specifically for this show. \nIn Claude Lévi-Strauss’s influential text of the same name\, the author identified binary oppositions – nature and culture\, raw and cooked – as fundamental tools by which societies organise meaning. For Dillon\, it is more than a reference; it offers a conceptual lens through which his paintings may be read – Dillon feels he is testing the limits of painting as a medium that can bridge instinct and intellect\, gesture and structure\, matter and form. As the gallery puts it\, “Dillon’s works remind us that art continues to operate like myth: as a space where chaos is given form\, where the elemental becomes symbolic\, and where human thought – raw and cooked alike – finds its most resonant expression”. \nTo 17 November. \nRight: Thomas Dillon\, Hawkeye (2025\, detail)
