30 January – 1 March 2025
October Gallery presents Material Sensibilities, an exhibition of vital and challenging works by Nnenna Okore, Naomi Wanjiku Gakunga, Susanne Kessler, LR Vandy, Jukhee Kwon, Sokari Douglas Camp and Sylvie Franquet, which explore the liminal boundaries of creative materiality, alongside new works by Xanthe Somers, Theresa Weber, Gaia Ozwyn and Khadija Jayi.
Material Sensibilities brings together sculptures, ceramics and paintings. Deploying a multitude of processes: cut, weave, burn, paste, rip, pin and embed, each piece invites the viewer to contemplate the dynamic dance between materiality and the artist’s hand.
