UNRULY FORMS | Jordi Alfaro, Margaret Glew, & Rina Gottesman

Earls Court Gallery is pleased to present UNRULY FORMS, a group exhibition featuring works by Jordi Alfaro, Margaret Glew, and Rina Gottesman.
Through sculpture, painting and mixed media, Unruly Forms exhibition artists explore intuitive abstraction shaped by gesture, layering, revision, and material investigation. Rather than working from fixed imagery, each artist allows forms to emerge through process — pushing surfaces until something is felt, remembered, or instinctive begins to appear in the media.
Sculptor Alfaro’s instinct-driven compositions draw from subconscious structures and the energy of nature to influence his ceramic forms. Glew’s expressive paintings embrace transformation through bold colour, gesture, and continual reworking. Gottesman’s layered surfaces combine acrylic and collage, allowing fragments to surface and recede over time.
Unruly Forms presents abstraction across two- and three-dimensional media, demonstrating how image and form evolve through artistic process in relation with the media. Material, intuition, and experimentation become guiding forces behind the result of the artworks that emerge though sometimes hard to tame.
Unruly Forms will be on view in the main gallery at 215 Ottawa Street North, Hamilton, from June 11 through July 18, 2026. Earls Court Gallery is open Tuesday to Friday from 10 am to 5 pm, and Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm. All artworks will also be available to view online upon installation.
