Anastasia Shin: Against the Plane 

BEARSPACE presents Anastasia Shin: Against the Plane, the first solo exhibition of British artist Anastasia Shin, premièring her new body of work.

In her painted and video work Shin embraces the notion of the pictorial realm as an unreachable space, inserting sculptural forms into a two dimensional world. Here objects hover in gravity defying space whilst constantly referencing their gridded linen and screen confines. Shin's work is influenced by the ritual of circumambulation (the act of walking around a sacred object), which is set in contrast to the static formations within her work whilst also commenting on the way the viewer interacts with the pieces themselves, tying spatial awareness to a specific location.
