Tschabalala Self : Thigh High

2 Oct-9 Nov 2019

Pilar Corrias, Conduit Street
London W1S 2YT

Overview

The second exhibition by American artist Tschabalala Self. The exhibition features new paintings, sculpture and an animation that continue to foreground Self’s exploration into the cultural expectations placed upon the gendered and racialised body. Through her use of form and function, Self parses the iconographic significance of the Black female body in contemporary culture. In Thigh High, the garments, shoes and accessories worn by the figures add a layer of complication to their form.
