Daphne Wright

Deep-Rooted Things | Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

13 June–7 December 2025

Daphne Wright will have a solo exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford in June 2025. Central to the exhibition will be Sons and Couch, a life-size sculptural artwork cast in jesmonite of the artist's sons, who have featured in their mother's moving and personal work since an early age. This new piece is currently a work in progress. Also on display will be Fridge Still Life (2021), which has not been on public display previously, alongside other works by Wright and objects from the Ashmolean's own collection.
