Travel Pick: Art and Archaeology in England Shona Illingworth
Shona Illingworth ENGLAND LONDON • Cafe Gallery Projects • Ongoing
For her first solo exhibition in London, Shona Illingworth shows
Walking on Letters alongside a new video installation which examines
structures of power, conformity and discipline through the military
practise of Drill. Filmed within the confines of a parade ground at
night, the work amplifies the suppressed violence and control that
establishes the corporate body of the group and subverts individual
identity, so diminishing the presence and tolerance of difference. Shown
on a continuous loop with no beginning or end the work sustains a state
of continual flux between physical order and psychological disruption.
