Weir denies enforced narrative. Yet evolving landscape and characters around her manifest, alive, specific. Mastering technique, Weir renders surfaces transparent allowing meaning and feeling to come through her very fingertips, exuding deep caring about the world and “we” in it.

The stance of Weir’s characters is evocative, deeply of the earth. Her imagination is rife with a wild humour. Her work is engaging, will depict life here and offer reflexive insight. It deserves to be contemplated and enjoyed.
