NEW STUDIO presents the first UK solo gallery show by Danish artist Wendy Plovmand
About
Plovmand makes striking installations combining mural painting, printmaking and objects that investigate the impact of digital technology on the making and sharing of images. She approaches the digital realm as an irrepressible force, one that she compares to psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan’s ‘Lamella’: the autonomous, shape-shifting matter of the libido. In Plovmand’s work Lacan’s immortal Lamella becomes a metaphor for the internet and the relentless production of new information that it generates.
During the opening evening, the artist will present her first public performance; transforming personal photographs offered by the public into digital abstractions which will be printed live and added to the exhibition, in an evolving installation.
