Rhea Dillon : An Alterable Terrain

Image
Minimal exhibition at Tate Britain of sculptures by Rhea Dillon. This display is in the Art Now series and was described as bringing the works together “as a conceptual fragmentation of a Black woman’s body.” I must admit I didn’t get that but it was at the end of a long day of art. There were 6 or 7 pieces in quite a large white room and they didn’t seem to speak to each other. Aesthetically I liked the large Perspex cube but without the description I would never have thought it represented lungs “which Dillon renders as breath lost and stolen from Black subjects.” Closes 1 January 2024
