Shape of Dreams
Leonora Carrington
May 14th - August 14th, 2026
Opening Night May 14th
Leonora Carrington (1917–2011) was a British-born Surrealist painter and sculptor who spent much of her life in Mexico City. Carrington developed a singular visual language rooted in alchemy, mythology, Celtic folklore, and the occult. Her work spanning painting, sculpture, fiction, and theater remains among the most inventive and enduring of the twentieth century
Shape of Dreams brings together a significant selection of Carrington’s bronze sculptures, such as Cat Woman, The Ship of Cranes, The Palmist and Unknown all produced during her lifetime. Emerging directly from the same visionary universe as her paintings, these works translate her mythological figures, hybrid beings, and symbolic language into three-dimensional form. At once intimate and monumental, the sculptures embody Carrington’s enduring exploration of transformation, mysticism, and the subconscious her figures appearing to step out of her canvases and into physical space.
