In the new series, The Waiting Field, Celia Lees turns her attention to a state of suspension—an unfamiliar and uneasy condition defined not by action, but by the experience of wai ting. The series examines the charged interval before a decisive shift, where momentum slows and outcomes remain uncertain. Rather than focusing on resolution, the works inhabit the space between, where movement forward depends not on individual certainty but on a shared sense of timing and mutual adjustment. Within these compositions, forms emerge through a quiet trust in process—trust in the medium, in timing, and in the evolving rhythm of creation. The spaces between forms become active and expressive, holding tension, possibility, and the weight of what has yet to unfold. Through this sustained attention to uncertainty, The Waiting Field reflects on identity within moments when control is relinquished and momentum is collective. Show more
