press release

In no particular order is the first solo exhibition in the UK by California-based artist Pae White. White’s artistic practice shifts across differing genres and media, from fine art and product design to urban planning and architecture, typography and graphics.

The exhibition will feature three of White’s paper mobile sculptures, Chartwell, Chocolate Mint Almost and a new work Overneath (2005). Cascading from hundreds of nylon threads, brightly coloured shapes such as ovals, diamonds and hexagons, cut from silk-screened paper, perceptually flicker and tantalise the viewer. Also featured is an installation of the artist’s intricately designed bird cages which delicately hang amidst the reflecting light pools of the perspex sculpture Copy Cat Lap (1998).

Three large-scale tapestries playfully capture the artist’s interest in the disposable and throwaway. Extraordinary images of crumpled tin foil have been scanned and translated into large-scale tapestries.

The exhibition also features a selection of White’s drawings, posters and a display of collaborative artist’s books.
