The inaugural solo exhibition at Lawrie Shabibi for London-based artist Mandy El-Sayegh is a combination of painting, installation, video, sound, and performance that showcases her characteristic \u2018bricolage\u2019 approach, connecting disparate visual cultural knowledge to create new meanings.<\/p>\n
Says the gallery: \u201cEl-Sayegh rebels against and liberates images and text from centralised commodification structures, exploring a fusion of various actions, creating an immersive audio-visual experience that weaves together ancestral, familial, and collective visual data from diverse sources such as ephemera, textiles, literature, newspapers, and printed materials \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
As part of the project, sound artist Sami El-Enany has been commissioned to craft a spatialised, multi-channel sound work in response to the themes explored in El-Sayegh\u2019s art.<\/p>\n
The exhibition is curated by Sara Raza.<\/p>\n
To 28 March.<\/p>\n
