SAMANTHA DONNELLY : RUBBERNECKER

31 Jan-1 Mar 2014

Ceri Hand Gallery
London SE1 0EP

Overview

The title Rubbernecker implies craning ones neck to get a better view of a road accident and the momentary relief felt that we are a spectator rather than participant. In this new series of sculptures and photographs (all 2013), Donnelly explores a morbid curiosity and voyeuristic interest in other people’s possessions and lives. She is interested in “domestic rubbernecking”, and the shamanistic qualities of objects and their potential power over us.
