Grace Weaver's figurative paintings combine art historical influences with familiar and present motifs and issues: from smartphone use and health crazes to gender relations. With a sensitive feel for everyday gestures and actions, Weaver captures the psychological conditions of young individuals in particular. Weaver's charcoal drawings play a key role in her work and are often the starting point for new paintings.
