NEED presents Nicola Tyson’s return to large-scale charcoal drawing, her first major exhibition of drawings in years. Working with charcoal, pastel, and conté on sanded paper, Tyson creates textured, painterly images driven by intuition. Figures, animals, and hybrid forms appear in charged encounters that probe intimacy, dependency, and identity. Through humor and psychological intensity, the drawings use portraiture as a means of questioning human connection and selfhood.
