Chisenhale Gallery presents a new commission and first solo exhibition in an institution by London-based artist Mandy El-Sayegh. El-Sayegh’s large-scale paintings, works on paper and object-based installations move between linguistic, material and corporeal registers, often creating double meanings that signal a breakdown in everyday systems and orders.
With When you can’t put feeling into words, Celeste C. da Luz opens her first solo exhibition focusing on the central preoccupation of colour, materiality and engagement.
