Mimi Cherono Ng'ok

5 May-17 Jun 2017

Overview

Kenyan photographer Cherono Ng’ok’s first UK solo exhibition investigates emotional cartographies inspired by a project bookmarked by two journeys to Brazil. Marking a period of major emotional transformation and shifting perspective for Ng’ok, the works function as an archival project with which to record changes in state of mind and experience. Although made whilst travelling from place to place, the images created are intended not as documentary records of any particular visit, but as affective prompts for a journey through memory, nostalgia and experience – both the artist’s and viewer’s own.
