GEUMHYUNG JEONG : PRIVATE COLLECTION:UNPERFORMED OBJECTS
Sep 28 - Nov 11, 2017
Private view Wed Sep 27 6:30pm - 9pm
Private Collection: Unperformed Objects is the first UK solo exhibition by South Korean artist and performer Geumhyung Jeong. Jeong has built up a collection of everyday objects upon which she bestows a bizarre, disconcerting life through an intense and risky interaction with her own body to challenge notions of sexuality, technology and the female body.
 
This new installation explores the relationship between her 'collection' and her creative process. Jeong has selected ‘unperformed objects’ - mannequins, vacuum cleaners, training machines and medical apparatus with a latent potential. Displayed alongside are videos of Jeong performing with the ‘performed objects’ not present, those modified by Jeong and activated in durational performances where they are first used in intended and routine ways before Jeong’s movements morph into erotic, obsessive, or antagonistic actions. In this light, the ‘unperformed objects’ become a collection of relics of a notion of civilization that Jeong seeks to challenge.

NICOLA TYSON : BEYOND THE TRACE
Sep 28 - Nov 12, 2017
Private view Wed Sep 27 6pm - 8pm
Beyond the Trace, solo exhibition of works on paper by Nicola Tyson. This will be the first solo exhibition in London of her drawings. It will include a range of work: sketchbook pages; ‘daily drawings’, made since 2015, and posted on social media; large graphite drawings; and life-sized ink drawings made especially for this exhibition. Working intuitively and from memory, these gestural pencil drawings are a reimagining of the female body; they are highly animated, androgynous, self-contained and surreal.
