WONG PING: HEART DIGGER
Jul 5 - Sep 15, 2019
Wong Ping creates digital and sculptural works that reveal very human, and often universal fantasies, through absurd narratives. Drawing anecdotally from his own social encounters, he elaborates his stories into darkly humorous tales that touch on political and cultural anxieties.

WE SING THE BODY ELECTRIC
Aug 2 - 28, 2019
Private view Thu Aug 1 6pm - 9pm
All-female exhibition featuring: Ingrid Berthon-Moine, Stine Deja, Enam Gbewonyo, Bex Ilsley, Juliette Mahieux Bartoli, Laila Majid, Alix Marie, Stacie McCormick, Marie Munk, Fern Lucia O'Carolan, Katarzyna Perlak, Cherelle Sappleton, Karolina Stellaki, Rebecca Wallis.
The exhibition title is taken from the Walt Whitman poem I Sing the Body Electric from 1855. Visionary for its time and increasingly relevant today, Whitman made the case for the inclusion of women in the democratic body by deconstructing the idea that the figure is always gendered- so he reduced the idea of the social constructions that the body is either male or female to the notion of the “naked meat of the body”. The work included highlights new ways that artists are dealing with the body- with a focus on it’s materiality which recalibrates the traditional female nude from the objectified into a confrontational subject, conveying an idea or universal reality, like Whitman’s poem.

MARY RAMSDEN : ZORRO
Jul 4 - Aug 9, 2019
Mary Ramsden’s paintings are composed of basic but indefinable shapes, marks, fields of colour and material. They appear so stripped back, so apparently lacking in artifice, coruscating brushwork and elaborate composition that it would be easy for a casual viewer to dismiss them. However a closer look reveals that they are arrived at by a series of laborious experiments, of thinking and rethinking during the process of painting. This process is defined by an infinite series of decisions, the refusal and acceptance of chance, the vagaries of the eye in coordination with the hand and the conscious effort to resist representation and referentiality whist acknowledging the impossibility of this.
