Morley Gallery is proud to present embodied, featuring works by Sokari Douglas Camp, Sonia E Barrett, Camilla Dilshat, Ahyeon Ryu, Adaesi Ukairo and Hannah Uzor.
Curated by art historian and writer Melissa Baksh, this group exhibition, which brings together art works from a range of mediums including sculpture, installation, painting and moving image, explores the complexity of lived experience and conscious emotion by way of the bodily form. Throughout the exhibition, the six artists grapple with the human body, be it in resistance or rest; addressing its fragility – but also, resilience – when navigating the socio-political, colonial legacy, and diasporic identity.
Curator-led exhibition tours will be available on Saturday 7 October 2:00 3:00pm and Wednesday 18 October 6:00 – 7:00pm. Please RSVP to: gallery@staging.morleycollege.ac.uk
