Ayad Alkadhi: Sunken Republic
27 January
Free
Based in New York, Alkadhi has academic degrees in art, engineering, and design – and as a result brings a multidisciplinary approach to a practice that engages with the cultural and political realities of global and Middle Eastern events.
This exhibition reflecting the turbulence of political conflict, social unrest, and survival. Figures twist and merge, anatomical precision is disrupted by drips, neon bursts, and dissolving edges, battle scenes or fever dreams are evoked, echoes of historical grandeur meet ghostly overlays and street art grit … The result, as the gallery puts it, is “a diasporic, hybrid language that defies categorisation”.
