Train (solo show)
17th January - 3rd February 2019
16 Nicholson street, Glasgow


‘Train’ is the debut solo exhibition of Debbie Young in Glasgow. The works presented are based on a prose poem written by Young - also named ‘Train’: an embellished autobiographical account joining the protagonist on a train ride around the landscapes of the artist’s memories. The story is a developing metaphor, brimming with nostalgia and confusion. Dealing with time, as well as expressing the importance of humour and authenticity, the works are intuitively created using various mediums and layers.

The exhibition is based on a prose poem (also called Train), in which a reading was performed by Luis Magill on the publication launch.
