On an epithelial level, the scar is simply a mark, a regenerated piece of tissue, a healed lesion
that conventionally follows the infliction of an incision or a burn, either intentional or not. Of
this trace however, we almost instantly find that it does not suffice to regard it as a mere
peculiarity of the dermis, as what is crucial to this fibrous section of tissue is the meta-
cutaneous, its metonymic relationship to a particular event or action. This is the primary trait
of any scar: that it signifies beyond the skin, beyond the biological palimpsest that it has
produced. We are, at first, tempted to associate it with the traumatic, with the remnants of
suffering that make of it a relic of pain, both physical and cognitive, an agonizing recollection
of consumed passions and jagged embraces, flaming within our psyche and manifest with the
illuminated perspex sculptures of Isaac Lythgoe. Yet, is it not a scar that also reminds one of
birth, of being removed from the womb for, which our mothers bear a caesarean section or
we, a snipping away of the umbilical cord? Can the postpartum depression alluded to by
Srijon Chowdhurys distracted mother-infant dyad not foreshadow a latter maternal joy, an
expulsion of postnatal morbidity?
If we look past the mere a priori and posteriori of the scar we begin its exoneration, its
acknowledgement as a mode of becoming with aesthetic, religious, socio-cultural, and
adaptive facets. The tattoo reaffirms this, for it not only physically exteriorises the intrinsic,
symbolically branding the epidermis, but performs the function of ritual by subjecting one to
the repeated injection of their beliefs. Such Maia Regis effaced protagonist, dog and pistol in
hand, imparts further potency to its all too visceral surroundings via the snake emblem
ascending their torso, the scar given agency. The kissing silicone sculptures of Casja von
Zeipel too recall this piercing and tinting of the skin through selective transparencies and the
emulation of a cracked reptilian dermis undergoing ecdysis (molting), further inscribing their
hyper-visiblity by means of their hybridity. Synthetic and organic, their skin, double-layered or
scaled, appears mechanically superior while still presenting the human characteristic of
retaining traces, or bearing scars. This dualism, the recalling of an organic anterior, further
prompt a focus on DNA, one expressed by Adriano Amaral in his employment of natural
materials such as tree bark and spirulina alongside shapes of contemporary industry. The
ramifications emerging from Amarals tubular structures delineate an ecological scarification
inflicted upon flora and fauna rather than the human flesh, proposing the solution of
prosthetics as a method of undoing any damage to the organic. A similar approach lies within
Jean-Marie Apprious sculptures of marine creatures. Displaying a hereditary connection to
their material makeup, for glass is made out of sand, such works however, conversely,
emphasize their static adherence to the gallery wall rendering the objet dart no different to a
biological specimen. There is no question of hybridity as with Zeipel or Amaral, urging rather
recognition through a confrontation with artifice.
John Miserendinos variegated marbles too evidentiate their flesh-like striations in order to
uncover a particularity akin to DNA. Each marble is modeled after, yet not sculpted to
resemble a figure, breaking with a tradition of purity (white-ness) and the relative anonymity
of material by accentuating surface lesions and vivid chromatic schemes. The notions of
transmission and trace exist not only within such marbles, for through the work of Muriel
Abadie an idea of recollection, of one's personal rather than cultural history surfaces with
the sketch. Abadie seeks to access a realm of the familiar, to awaken in all of us a forgotten
memory that can appear through the visual. Her urge is collective, remembrance as
protection against temporal perdition. Within our efforts to heal, perhaps the same can be
said for the cicatrice...

media_order: 'Inhabited Props in a Box, 2018.jpeg,Wrong Side of the Table, 2019.jpg'
show_sidebar: false

pagetype: website

Exquisite Farces is the culmination of Nour El Salehs residency at VO Curations, a
curatorial and cultural mediation outfit that are helping usher in a new way for artists to
inhabit and make use of the rapidly transforming architecture of an austere London. It
also marks her first foray into the wider world following on from three-years of study at
The Slade School of Fine Art, London.
El Salehs approach dismisses preparatory drawings; lines and forms are imagined,
physicalised and placed impulsively to prompt new narrative possibilities. She has
worked towards the creation of a satirical language to communicate an uncanny rendition
of her own experiences. With her childhood spent in the United Arab Emirates, a host for
impermanent residents, El Salehs comfort was in a constant state of flux, and through the
work she grapples with a sense of belonging; deceivingly familiar spaces are tensed with
anguish and actors, and through the use of theatrical and comical imagery, the artist
reconciles these two forces.
The Puppeteer of Karakas evokes the memory of a man playing with puppets in the street
where El Saleh lives in Beirut. Here, the puppeteer is disguised and plays with four
eccentric real-life marionettes. Any hint that they might fall into a Mickey Sabbath-like
world of destitution and depravity is reframed with a sense of homeliness; checkered floor
tiles and floral wallpaper, which feature as a recurrent backdrop across El Salehs scenes.
Inserting small characters in the eyes and heads of certain protagonists, El Saleh seems
to play with the apparent roles, and who in fact conducts the scene. A mise en abyme
occurs, the Puppeteer of Karakas becomes puppeteered, and equally, the motherly figure
of Wrong Side of The Table loses her intimidating aura, turning into a vessel, a further
prop in the theatre of El Salehs mind. Wrong Side of the Table depicts a juxtaposition
between a naked bust-figure, sitting at the table provocatively, acting out for the sake of
being rewarded with attention, which is at odds with a heavily cloaked figure under the
table, an elderly child, hidden out of view, coaxing attention through her aloofness.
El Salehs characters all seem to resemble each other with similar features: prominent
noses, dimpled chins and brown hair, almost to the point of appearing cloned in certain
scenes. All interacting intensely within a domestic interior and little space to roam,
pronounce the collectivistic atmosphere present across the artists paintings. This is
echoed by the two hybrid characters that sit aside the central figure in Inhabited Props in
a Box, which although are bickering, at once recall squabbling siblings rather than
anything untoward; and in this lay the charm of El Salehs world. Despite the peculiarity of
her depictions, on further inspection there lies a familiarity and intimate feeling of the
known. Representation dissolves, El Saleh seems to abolish the stage, the auditorium
and have spectators sit within the composition. In an Artaud-esque manner, actors are
seen to be passive and neutral, while masks, puppets and sock marionnettes rule the set.

An awareness of materials is crucial in pursuing any artistic endeavour.
The capacity of the artist to resonate with their medium while grasping its
true potential occurs through careful observation, during which a full
understanding of its chemical properties, durability, and texture proceeds.
For the painter or the etcher, the mental is translated into the physical
realm predominately with the aid of utensils. The sculptor however relies
less on this mediating process, for it is the tactile, his very own hand which
possesses the knowledge to manipulate and assemble substance. It comes
as no surprise that the greatest innovations in sculpture of the past century
resulted from an increasing immediacy towards the generative process
manifest through methods such as direct casting (Medardo Rosso) and
carving (Constantin Brâncuşi) or the collection of novel, unconventional
materials for further assembly (Iza Genzken). Olivia Bax's work is a
distinct example of this aesthetic manu propria, for Bax not only
physically leaves the imprint of her hand, her gestures on the surface of her
sculptures, but she also uses handles as a recurring motif (Hot Spot,
Boulder (with handle) and Pump). Her stand-alone pieces (Rumble and
Roar) have a human scale, as if they were based on her own height.
Bax's investigation of material rhythms can be likened to the act of
sketching, of which the varying tempo, the drawing and selective retracing
of preferred parts, aid in the development of her sculptural pieces. There is
an unprecedented fascination with the armature of her pieces, which she
does not completely conceal with the malleable paper pulp, opting rather
for the visibility of the different processes. The sculptures are activated not
only through the revealing of their anatomy and the material dialectic that
ensues, but also through their humanistic dimensions. Scale holds a
significant role within Bax's oeuvre, evoking both the domestic, and trying
to escape from it by experimenting with site-specific height. The work
Footloose, having been previously installed twice, is now refashioned to
accommodate the low ceilings of this space while still slightly protruding
through the support grid. Bax's work is at large not only through its
diversity, resembling a smaller retrospective, but also through the sheer
dimension of the space (the largest space she has exhibited in thus far),
which allows for the sculptures to escape confinement. There is sufficient
expanse within the gallery for the works to exist as individual entities,
while simultaneously undergoing a mutual, collective activation. Palisade,
the blue fence-like structure suggests a tripartite segmentation of the
sculptural environment while similarly acting as a chromatic backdrop for
works such as the aforementioned Footloose, and a three-dimensional
framing for Slot & Groove. This seemingly divisive curatorial choice
however, conversely facilitates discourse between the sculptures of the
ensemble, acting not as a barrier, but rather as an interactional tool.
Bax's work extends beyond the removal of a sculpture from its pedestal as
the sole source for immediacy. By imprinting her hands onto the surface of
the work and using her height as a unit of measurement, by exposing
diverse layers of materials causing thus an interaction within the anatomy
of the work itself, and subsequently one within its collective pairing, the
artist creates a cycle closed off by the viewer. Within her process of
making, Bax activates herself, the space, the works and viewers, whether
at a local level or at large.

Phillips x VO Curations are pleased to present a novel reading of Charles Baudelaire's collection of poems Les Fleurs du Mal through the spectrum of contemporary art, exploring the seminal concept of the double postulation that has protruded beyond the literary universe of the French poet. The exhibition features the works of 9 contemporary artists that play upon the duality of the Baudelairian ethos and its fascination for antithetical pairings, the atemporal resonance of what the poet refers to as the "two inseparable abysses of the human soul". Parfum d'épines was supported by Parcours 2019 and Outset Contemporary Art Fund.

There exist no bodies, yet collective movement ensues. The canvas surface is flat, yet the power of suggestion engrosses Sonya Derviz's Dancers within the figurative, only to awake us from this mirage through the protrusion of a forceful abstract composition. She aims to simultaneously construct and efface the presence of the recognisable, to insert it within a stream of strokes dragging, rotating, and contorting colour and form within the predefined space of the canvas. The dynamism stirring each layer of wash, the alternation of dispersing blocks of colour with interwoven accents pierces the fabric of the figurative into abstraction. The exhibition was accompanied with a poem, composed by Joshua Leon.

"It is something rejected from which one does not part, from which one
does not protect oneself as from an object. (...) It is thus not lack of
cleanliness or health that causes abjection but what disturbs identity,
system, order."
- Julia Kristeva
There is an unprecedented struggle for unity and mutuality in this epoch of
singularity and individualism. The biblical precedes these secular ideals in
the myth of Babel, with its human element inevitably failing into disparity,
not just of language but also of socio-cultural context for its collective
ambitions would become its primary sin. Surrounded by divergent,
fluctuating value systems, Sara Berman has selected the lowest common
denominator of mankind as the focal point of her work, as an uncanny,
debased catalyser in her line of artistic inquiry: 'waste'. A propensity for
textiles has perhaps indicated Berman in the direction of lint, of drying
machine filters, which despite her minimal intervention, do not draw one
immediately towards the abject nature of the piece, but rather ensue an
auratic dialogue guided by their anthropomorphic quality and vivid
stratigraphy. This 'matter out of place', waste in the form of the work of
art (the commodity par excellence) comes to embody the term derived from
Mary Douglas's seminal study on dirt, not just literally, but through the
very internal logic of the works. Not only are the fabric remnants
dislocated from their status as superfluous objects, framed and exhibited
within the gallery space, but in her attempt to generate discourse Berman
has created an art object resistant and adhering to any nomenclature, while
circumventing any positive or negative valences. The works find
themselves in a latent state; perhaps even one of paradox for an initial
reaction might contravene a subsequent one upon finding out the medium.
From breaking her own dyer at home, to her latter exploration of London
drycleaners, from the first attempts of gathering the lint in large bags to
then attaching it to furniture, Berman has redacted her process of making
to reduce the infliction of her will upon the work as much as possible. This
however has not created a ready-made, for the immediacy of deskilling is
replaced by a careful subtraction, while the unique makeup of the works
would have them tangential to artisanship. Berman selects the lints from
the filters (very few of which present this distinctive layering) and stiches
them to pieces of linen without seeking precision. There is an
inexhaustible web of socio-economic relations, which each wool fibre or
hair follicle has traversed and can further generate through their
repurposing in the lint figures. It is perhaps not coincidental that some of
these should have a convex, circular geometry, occurring in the inferior
parts evoking thus the maternal or the fertile. The human dimension of the
works would have it operate like an artefact, even more so now that the
pieces are exhibited framed for the first time, an equalizing procedure to
stress their organic, biological aspect. There is only an illusion of
uniformity as each work is entirely distinct in its 'genetic composition'
while any separation occurs as an auxiliary, as our own imposed
estrangement from it. Berman has removed the glass dividing the viewer
from the 'abject', facilitating either confrontation or familiarization, in
either circumstance permitting a direct exchange. The rug outside invites
one into the gallery space while simultaneously deconstructing its
boundary, playing into the idea of domesticity as a percept for belonging
and safety while including the nomadic. Berman's inquiry extends into the
exterior realm, the question remains, is it art, a handful of hair and lint
from the local drycleaners or simply matter... out of place?

The exhibition featured the work of sculptor Andrei Costache and painters Morgan Ward and Richie Culver. Andrei Costache's sculptures proliferate a sentient quality, mirroring a vast spectrum of experiences from one's first visit to London to the infantile joy of watching a new cartoon series. His MDF creations stress their ephemerality through the very nature of their material, far more mobile than traditional mediums such as metal or stone. Morgan Ward is concerned with extending the interaction of colour and form beyond two-dimensionality, both materially and by employing abstracted optical illusions. Richie Culver's works present narratives mirroring those of London housing estates or marginalised residential areas, narratives of domestic heroes or local underdogs.

the repeated injection of their beliefs. Such Maia Regis effaced protagonist, dog and pistol in
hand, imparts further potency to its all too visceral surroundings via the snake emblem
ascending their torso, the scar given agency. The kissing silicone sculptures of Casja von
Zeipel too recall this piercing and tinting of the skin through selective transparencies and the
emulation of a cracked reptilian dermis undergoing ecdysis (molting), further inscribing their
hyper-visiblity by means of their hybridity. Synthetic and organic, their skin, double-layered or
scaled, appears mechanically superior while still presenting the human characteristic of
retaining traces, or bearing scars. This dualism, the recalling of an organic anterior, further
prompt a focus on DNA, one expressed by Adriano Amaral in his employment of natural
materials such as tree bark and spirulina alongside shapes of contemporary industry. The
ramifications emerging from Amarals tubular structures delineate an ecological scarification
inflicted upon flora and fauna rather than the human flesh, proposing the solution of
prosthetics as a method of undoing any damage to the organic. A similar approach lies within
Jean-Marie Apprious sculptures of marine creatures. Displaying a hereditary connection to
their material makeup, for glass is made out of sand, such works however, conversely,
emphasize their static adherence to the gallery wall rendering the objet dart no different to a
biological specimen. There is no question of hybridity as with Zeipel or Amaral, urging rather
recognition through a confrontation with artifice.
John Miserendinos variegated marbles too evidentiate their flesh-like striations in order to
uncover a particularity akin to DNA. Each marble is modeled after, yet not sculpted to
resemble a figure, breaking with a tradition of purity (white-ness) and the relative anonymity
of material by accentuating surface lesions and vivid chromatic schemes. The notions of
transmission and trace exist not only within such marbles, for through the work of Muriel
Abadie an idea of recollection, of one's personal rather than cultural history surfaces with
the sketch. Abadie seeks to access a realm of the familiar, to awaken in all of us a forgotten
memory that can appear through the visual. Her urge is collective, remembrance as
protection against temporal perdition. Within our efforts to heal, perhaps the same can be
said for the cicatrice...

"It is something rejected from which one does not part, from which one
does not protect oneself as from an object. (...) It is thus not lack of
cleanliness or health that causes abjection but what disturbs identity,
system, order."
- Julia Kristeva
There is an unprecedented struggle for unity and mutuality in this epoch of
singularity and individualism. The biblical precedes these secular ideals in
the myth of Babel, with its human element inevitably failing into disparity,
not just of language but also of socio-cultural context for its collective
ambitions would become its primary sin. Surrounded by divergent,
fluctuating value systems, Sara Berman has selected the lowest common
denominator of mankind as the focal point of her work, as an uncanny,
debased catalyser in her line of artistic inquiry: 'waste'. A propensity for
textiles has perhaps indicated Berman in the direction of lint, of drying
machine filters, which despite her minimal intervention, do not draw one
immediately towards the abject nature of the piece, but rather ensue an
auratic dialogue guided by their anthropomorphic quality and vivid
stratigraphy. This 'matter out of place', waste in the form of the work of
art (the commodity par excellence) comes to embody the term derived from
Mary Douglas's seminal study on dirt, not just literally, but through the
very internal logic of the works. Not only are the fabric remnants
dislocated from their status as superfluous objects, framed and exhibited
within the gallery space, but in her attempt to generate discourse Berman
has created an art object resistant and adhering to any nomenclature, while
circumventing any positive or negative valences. The works find
themselves in a latent state; perhaps even one of paradox for an initial
reaction might contravene a subsequent one upon finding out the medium.
From breaking her own dyer at home, to her latter exploration of London
drycleaners, from the first attempts of gathering the lint in large bags to
then attaching it to furniture, Berman has redacted her process of making
to reduce the infliction of her will upon the work as much as possible. This
however has not created a ready-made, for the immediacy of deskilling is
replaced by a careful subtraction, while the unique makeup of the works
would have them tangential to artisanship. Berman selects the lints from
the filters (very few of which present this distinctive layering) and stiches
them to pieces of linen without seeking precision. There is an
inexhaustible web of socio-economic relations, which each wool fibre or
hair follicle has traversed and can further generate through their
repurposing in the lint figures. It is perhaps not coincidental that some of
these should have a convex, circular geometry, occurring in the inferior
parts evoking thus the maternal or the fertile. The human dimension of the
works would have it operate like an artefact, even more so now that the
pieces are exhibited framed for the first time, an equalizing procedure to
stress their organic, biological aspect. There is only an illusion of
uniformity as each work is entirely distinct in its 'genetic composition'
while any separation occurs as an auxiliary, as our own imposed
estrangement from it. Berman has removed the glass dividing the viewer
from the 'abject', facilitating either confrontation or familiarization, in
either circumstance permitting a direct exchange. The rug outside invites
one into the gallery space while simultaneously deconstructing its
boundary, playing into the idea of domesticity as a percept for belonging
and safety while including the nomadic. Berman's inquiry extends into the
exterior realm, the question remains, is it art, a handful of hair and lint
from the local drycleaners or simply matter... out of place?

The exhibition featured the work of sculptor Andrei Costache and painters Morgan Ward and Richie Culver. Andrei Costache's sculptures proliferate a sentient quality, mirroring a vast spectrum of experiences from one's first visit to London to the infantile joy of watching a new cartoon series. His MDF creations stress their ephemerality through the very nature of their material, far more mobile than traditional mediums such as metal or stone. Morgan Ward is concerned with extending the interaction of colour and form beyond two-dimensionality, both materially and by employing abstracted optical illusions. Richie Culver's works present narratives mirroring those of London housing estates or marginalised residential areas, narratives of domestic heroes or local underdogs.
