Bianca Hester

The Showroom (old venue), London

On show a new sculptural installation that engages the gallery as a place of production and responds to the social-material elements of the local environment of Bethnal Green. As the project develops, the installation will also function as an ad-hoc setting for a series of events.


comunicato stampa

The Showroom is delighted to announce that it has invited Melbourne-based artist Bianca Hester to make her first solo show in London during 2008. Hester will be in residence at The Showroom during January – March, making a new sculptural installation that engages the gallery as a place of production and responds to the social-material elements of the local environment of Bethnal Green. As the project develops, the installation will also function as an ad-hoc setting for a series of events.

In Australia, Hester is gaining a reputation for her collaborations and projects that collect activity around temporary structures and public situations. Through her practice, Bianca Hester explores materiality, architecture and social space; in the past this has involved using a range of prosaic materials (such as plasticine, dirt, carpet, ropes and miscellaneous building supplies) to create scattered installations of partial-objects and quasi-architectural constructions.

For The Showroom, Hester will assemble an ephemeral installation – consisting of sculptural elements, architectural propositions, video sequences and publications – which will host recordings and improvisations as well as micro-projects with artists and organisations.

Opening Tuesday 4 March 19-21
