FOREST + FOUND: THE HOUSE IS FULL OF GHOSTS: A new exhibition at 8 Holland Street | South Of The River

The exhibition The House is Full of Ghosts brings together artists Max Bainbridge and Abigail Booth of studio collective Forest + Found in an unflinching yet tender exploration of the psychology of the domestic house. Their works inhabit the architecture of rooms at once familiar in their proportions yet disquieted by the absence of their inhabitants. Exploring the interplay between embodiment and erasure across permanent and transient states of being, the artists draw on accumulations of familial memory, domestic labour and the passing of time through shared histories of objects and materials.

Event

Abigail Booth - In conversation with Ferren Gipson

Saturday 16 May 3.30 - 4.30pm 

FRANCES PINNOCK: REPOSE

Alongside Forest + Found, Frances Pinnock presents Repose, a room of intimate works that appear as held notes and gestures, continuing the artist’s enquiry into sculpture as it exists both as performance and private archive. These uncanny arrangements pose objects and materials in states of tension and rest, and explore transformation and distortion in relation to material, perception, and memory. 

8 Holland Street is excited to present 8 HOLLAND STREET | SOUTH OF THE RIVER. Spread across two townhouses on Kennington Lane SE11, the ambitious project presents a new design destination for spring, showcasing six diverse exhibitions spanning sculpture, textile, ceramic, print, furniture and design.

In this unique setting, the artists and exhibitions on view explore the psychology of the home, domestic objects, and their occupants.
