For the first major UK solo exhibition by Brazilian artist Cinthia Marcelle, Modern Art Oxford has commissioned a new site-specific installation, The Family in Disorder (2018).
About
It is accompanied by the premiere of Truth or Dare (2018), a video animation of photographs taken by the artist during a recent residency in South Africa. Together, these works provide an introduction to one of Brazil’s most significant contemporary artists.
This new commission is realised in the wake of rising social inequality caused by multiple political and economic crises, both in Marcelle’s home country of Brazil and across global society. Considering the exhibition as a space of occupation, the work provokes a dialogue about citizens’ rights and access to public space, drawing parallels between various social and educational structures in Oxford and Brazil.
