Project Native Informant proudly presents Deep Nap, a solo exhibition by Curaçaoan artist Rinella Alfonso. In her first UK exhibition, Alfonso constructs poetic, biomorphic abstract channels between misty memories and hallucinatory fictions. Using imagery informed by archives that she has collected over the years, rendering ordinary objects and personal symbols, her paintings become evocations, carrying knowledge we cannot fully understand but intuitively feel, speaking in a decentered and transformative language.

Mo Shaolong: Spiritual Politicians

7 July – 29 July, 2022

PV: Thursday, 7 July, 1-3PM

Jack Bell Gallery is pleased to present a solo show of new paintings by Mo Shaolong. This will be the artist’s first exhibition in the UK. Shaolong (b.1989, Henan, China) currently lives and works in Shanghai. Through his use and reflection of cinema4D software, Mo seeks to redefine the long-standing genre of portraiture. Mo sees himself as belonging to the generation informed by globalisation, the Internet, and digital technology. In this sense, his work hints at the fact that every present-day individual is a cyborg, whose ethos exhibits a human-computer hybridity.
