Verity Coward, Untitled (2024)

Verity Coward works across sculpture, painting and moving-image to reflect on agency in the mechanisms of storying. Through a practice embedded in material and process, she samples and reconfigures themes from literature, fables, cartoons and current affairs to play with shifting states, cyclical refrains and satirical possibilities.

Selected exhibitions, screenings and projects include: ‘Unruly Bodies’ Goldsmiths Centre for Contemporary Art, ‘Highly Educated Secular Salamanders’ Massimo de Carlo Gallery, curated by Monster Chetwynd, ‘Eat Dust!’ film STEMS screening Horse Hospital, ‘Metamorph’ screening at Soul Festival, The Bomb Factory, Verity also recently had a solo project with Guts Projects, London in 2024. Verity has recently been commissioned by Flatland Projects and Talent Accelerator, East Sussex to produce a new body of work in connenction with Chantry Community Primary School in Sidley, Bexhill.
