Deep-Rooted Things is a solo exhibition of work by Daphne Wright at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. Central to the exhibition is Sons and Couch, a life-size sculptural artwork cast in jesmonite of the artist's sons, who have featured in their mother's moving and personal work since an early age. This new piece is currently a work in progress. Also on display is Fridge Still Life (2021), which has not been on public display previously, alongside other works by Wright and objects from the Ashmolean's own collection.
