With the bare minimum of vibrantly coloured lines, Glasgow-based artist France-Lise McGurn suggests long limbs, surprisingly expressive faces and exuberant bodies in motion. Her works, which might typically be understood as drawing, often spill out onto the walls, floor and ceiling of gallery spaces, encompassing the whole interior. She is currently showing at Tramway in Glasgow. “Mcgurn’s figurative painting and wall drawings evoke bodies and limbs overlapping and interacting in ambivalent spaces, at parties, in night clubs, on streets or lying in bed either side of paper thin walls,” says the gallery.
