Christopher Colm Morrin: White Room
Forthcoming exhibition
Overview
Christopher Colm Morrin’s second solo exhibition with the gallery, “White Room”, opens on March 28.
Working on intimate canvases, Morrin builds paintings that invite slow attention. They operate in the space between how something looks and what it physically is, allowing meaning to form gradually through that tension. Each body of work emerges from a desire to stay close to experience itself.
The works in White Room resist fixed interpretation. They often remain provisional arrangements of paint, grounded in presence rather than image. This reduction signals a quiet shift in Morrin’s language. In White Room nr. 1 (2026), white oil paint covers the canvas as the jute’s grid rises through it, crossed by a single Prussian blue line that marks space without fully defining it.
