This exhibition of recent paintings and sculptures, the artist’s seventh solo show, takes its name from the Lathyrus, or pea or vetch as it is more commonly known – an innocent enough looking family of flowers that conceal some pretty venemous surprises. Illustrated above is Death of a Siren (oil, 130 by 170cm).
