17 October - 4 November 2020
Taymour Grahne Projects is pleased to present Singing a New Song by New York - based artist Nicky Nodjoumi opening all day (between 10 AM - 6 PM) on October 17.
Nodjoumi's scenarios address cultural power structures, examining how fear and force maintain rigid understandings of our habitat within a hierarchical system. As an artist responding to contemporaneous happenings, expression is rooted in truth rather than the quest for power. This practise is liberating, and allows for human vice to be held up to the light in ridicule. By painting and twisting recognisable imagery, Nodjoumi interjects cohesive depictions rooted in reality. Slice by slice, component by component, symbolic figures are reconstructed and exposed as the farce they are.
