Sophie Jung: Come Fresh Hell or Fresh High Water

Sophie Jung Blain Southern

The second in Blain|Southern’s new series of exhibitions, collectively titled Lodger, its curator Tom Morton has invited the artist Sophie Jung to develop a new sculptural installation, accompanied by a performance that exists as both a live event and a looping video work. For this exhibition, Come Fresh Hell or Fresh High Water, Jung will transform Blain|Southern’s lower gallery into an environment that recalls at once a bunker, an ice cellar, a Brechtian stage set, and a dressing room.  Scale, here, is subject to sudden glitches, and the most mundane of objects – coffee mugs, shower curtains, hat stands ­– hum with histories, ironies, and a simmering sense of fury.

 

Performances are scheduled at various point throughout the run of the exhibition. Dates will be announced shortly.
