Ken Kiff, Carole Gibbons and Laetitia Yhap | Drawing the Unspeakable | Towner Eastbourne

Ken Kiff, Carole Gibbons and Laetitia Yhap are currently included in Drawing the Unspeakable at Towner Eastbourne, through 27 April 2025.
 
Curated by David Dimbleby & Liza Dimbleby, Featuring 300 works, Drawing the Unspeakable is an in-depth exploration of human experience through art. The exhibition brings together a diverse array of pieces that challenge the boundaries of speech, translating the unspeakable into the visual realm. Through these drawings, artists navigate themes of disaster, war, displacement and destruction, mental and physical illness, loss, grief, birth and family, dreams, memories, and imagination.
 
At the heart of this exhibition lies a unique and thoughtful dialogue between David and Liza. This exchange, presented from their distinct perspectives as journalist and artist, as well as father and daughter, provides deep insights into their curatorial choices and reveals the nuanced dynamics of familial relationships. The dialogue will be available in printed form in the gallery. Through their conversation, visitors will gain a greater understanding of the exhibition's themes and the personal significance of the selected artworks.
