Exhibition Review - Thilo Heinzmann: 'To Be And To Be' Carl Freedman Gallery, London till 22nd Oct 2016.
“Something happened beyond the frame.
Something left behind.
Something reframed."
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "Heinsmann's clever use of disjunctive, anachronistic elements made me think of a forensic enquiry into the Modernist project. His paintings are like 'petri dishes' used to culture the isolated craft and technique of modernism. Heinsmann substitutes the subjective and subtle process of discovery for the 'science'." - FaSa

Exhibition Review - David Korty at Sadie Coles HQ, London till 1st Oct 2016.
“Korty's unmoving mutating frenzy,
inserts imaginary mathematics
between the viewer it's already leaving behind."
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "It seems to me that Mr Korty's new paintings have been 'datamoshed' through some sort of lossy compression algorithm. Indeed, over the years Mr Korty's evolving compositions have given in to compression and flatness and looking at them now I am reminded how compression reorganises the context, time and space of information and introduces certain artifacts that materialise the inherent character of the medium. Pushing the digital analogy further, I see pixelating, checkerboarding and macroblocking and perhaps, just perhaps, Mr Korty's paintings are a sort of a critique of today's perfect world of digital communication, a world of instant gratification." - Raj

Exhibition Review - Cathy Haynes, Nancy Holt, Hannah Lees, Zoe Paul, Claire Potter: 'Overlay' White Rainbow, London till 20th September 2016.
“There, all snarled up in a mesh,
smothering and sowing,
- an invoking."
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "To me this exhibition is about matrices i.e. the environments or materials within which something develops, is cast or shaped. Here, there is everywhere evidence, of the Great Goddess, a medium between nature and humanity, guiding not the shaping of matter, but its resurrection. And these matrices, these 'situations', are especially embedded in Nancy Holt's multiplicity of images, in Cathy Haynes' forest of words and months, in Hannah Lees' tablets and altarpiece, in Zoe Paul's staging and Claire Potter's script. Subtle and fabulous. " - JayZee

Exhibition Review - Rajinder Singh: 'Cage of Deliverance' Wei Ling gallery, Kuala Lumpur till 30th September 2016.
“Rajinder blends the limit of the traumatised body against the sweep of erasure."
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "Rajinder builds spacious cages in his paintings, free to roam about in, their quiet tranquility oblivious to the trauma transcribed onto their very walls. This terrorising calligraphy, unseen yet obvious, forms a salient component in Rajinder's 'simulation cages', strapped onto life's limbs, lancing together an algorithmic representation of the self. And to me, cage and limb, lulled by incense and candlelight, seem to fade quietly away into their dark, cavernous surroundings. " - FaSa

Exhibition Review - Golnaz Fathi, Jenny Holzer, Sayaka Ishizuka, Qian Jiahua, Ezzam Rahman, Melati Suryodarmo, Tao Hui, and Zen Teh: 'In Silence' Pearl Lam gallery, Singapore till 4th September 2016.
“Shipwrecked on silence,
seas tugging between us,
we hurl voices into distance,
waiting to hear our names."
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "Nyepi, Bali's "Day of Silence", catches on worldwide as 8 artists from across the globe come together to contemplate life beyond and within silence. Alone and separate, we leave our silences for the raging torrents of life, interacting with the world around us, willing a presence as we bruise and are bruised, before we turn once again to silence, desperately heavy and human. The cryptic inflected voices of Holzer, Fathi's motions of prayer, Rahman's intensely personal pleats and folds and Ishizuka's rice melodies especially stir in me memories of that unfamiliar sensation of silence, when the roar of life cedes and you can hear yourself think again. Fabulous." - FaSa

Exhibition Review - John Clang: 'The World Surrounding an Indoor Plant' FOST gallery, Singapore till 4th September 2016.
“Clang traces his mind around every image.”
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "In Singapore, John Clang renders projected photos of his family and friends in charcoal before rephotographing them. His exhibited images, several steps removed from his subjects, are to me an investigation into the magical powers of his camera, a tool to catch the real from the illusory, the substance from mere appearance, and perhaps even the good from the evil. In the end though the photograph as index merely reflects human subjectivity and error in the self reflexive production of art from art and becomes entwined with the whole problem of time. I didn't love them. " - FaSa

Exhibition Review - Elizabeth Neel: 'Vulture and Chicks' at Pilar Corrias, London till 17th June 2016.
“Ms Neel holds up a folded mirror,
splintered like thrown paint,
into a wristful of charged forms.”
- Drenched Co.
Comment: "I am attracted to the immediacy in Ms Neel's work. I fancy her locked in the throes of some imagined rhythm, the lines of her offbeat movements building intricate plots of natural and gestural territories. " - FaSa

Exhibition Review - Andrew Sutherland at Edel Assanti, London till 28th May 2016.
“Practical activity writes upon nature,
.. in a scrawling hand..”
- Drenched Co.
Quote by Henri Lefebvre "The production of space". 1991
Comment: "Andrew, to me, is above all an itinerant. The thread of his wanderings, the lines on which he conducts his life and actions is steadfastly entangled with his materials,his textures and his patterns. Through these fluxes and flows, aided by his particular sensitivity for the invisible reality around things, Andrew composes magical intricate spaces in his work. I liked his work in 'Gold Standard' best." - FaSa
