Jonathan Baldock: Facecrime (suspect)

1 Jul-31 Jul 2020

Stephen Friedman Gallery
London W1S 3LQ

Overview

Stephen Friedman Gallery is pleased to present a new installation ‘Facecrime (suspect)’ by British artist Jonathan Baldock in Gallery Two. This monumental installation comprises precariously stacked ceramic columns. Evoking both ancient ruins and a surreal vision of the future, these hand-crafted forms reflect the artist's interest in myth, folklore and narratives associated with ‘outsider' practices. Baldock’s prevalent use of Yves Klein blue makes the work shimmer and glow with a spiritual, alchemical quality.
