"In Louise Hearman’s paintings and drawings, things are not always as they seem. It is up to us to imagine what is glimmering in the half-light or lurking deep in the shadows, as the artist offers no written or verbal clues to the evocative content of her works, which are nearly always left untitled. An underlying sense of disquiet permeates many of her images. Like the fragmented memories of dreams or nightmares, they carry the emotional traces of everyday events but cannot easily be explained in words. Their logic does not belong to the daylight hours even though their content may sometimes appear quite ordinary."
