On Friday 12 April, Humber Street Gallery is delighted to present A Tittle-Tattle Tell-A-Tale Heart, Athena Papadopoulos’ (b.1988) first major institutional presentation in the UK.
About
Based in London, the internationally acclaimed Canadian artist has exhibited widely and was recently shortlisted for the prestigious Max Mara Art Prize for Women, in collaboration with London’s Whitechapel Gallery.
For Papadopoulos’ presentation in Hull, the artist reinterprets a selection of chapters from her eponymously titled novel, A Tittle-Tattle Tell-A-Tale Heart, to construct a narrative incorporating sculptures, sound installation, costume design and performance.
Published in 2018, A Tittle-Tattle Tell-A-Tale Heartmoves through different registers of textual experimentation, mimicking the detective story to uncover the tragic downfall and hopeful rebirth of the protagonist, Bunny.
