Ruup & Form presents Evisceration by Christopher Kelly, a solo exhibition that brings the

internal terrain of Kellys neurodivergent experience into sculptural and spatial form. The exhibition marks the fifth chapter of Kellys long running project Interwoven, and represents a pivotal moment of exposure, clarity, and material resolve.

Rooted in lived experience of Autism and Attention Deficit Disorder, Evisceration examines the gradual loosening and shedding of masking. Masking is understood here as the often-unconscious restructuring of self-required to navigate neurotypical environments. Through textile-based sculpture, installation, and furniture scale works, Kelly renders these internal negotiations visible, tactile, and spatially present.

Working with crochet, macramé, weaving, and natural or repurposed materials, Kelly constructs form that oscillate between containment and release. The works open, unravel, and spill outward, holding vulnerability alongside quiet insistence. Emotional intensity is carried through material tension rather than visual excess, creating an environment that feels at once exposed and composed, intimate and assured.

Installed as a series of distinct yet interconnected zones within the gallery, the exhibition invites visitors to move through what Kelly describes as “an inner studio space” A place where process, fragmentation, and resolution coexist. Sculptural wall works, suspended elements, a curated studio wall, and a key furniture piece titled Stability Chair together form an experience that prioritises emotional honesty and conceptual clarity.

Evisceration offers a compelling dialogue between contemporary art and spatial design, positioning Christopher Kelly's sculptural works as resonant interventions within high end hospitality and interior environments. Through a refined textile language and an acute sensitivity to scale, tactility, and architectural rhythm, the works bring depth, calm, and emotional resonance to space without visual excess. Kelly’s approach lends itself to environments that prioritise atmosphere, wellbeing, and considered materiality. Hotels, private residences, and public interiors are invited to engage with the work as both sculptural presence and experiential anchor, where craft, narrative, and spatial intelligence converge to create environments that are quietly impactful, enduring, and human centred
