First solo exhibition at a UK gallery for contemporary painter of ghosts, dreams and hybrid humans.
Drawing from the cosmologies of Shona culture, Christian iconography, European oil painting and African printmaking practices, this exhibition will be Portia Zvavahera’s first solo exhibition at a public gallery in Europe.
Making use of batik stencilling techniques, block-printing and ink painting, new and recent works of art will explore ghostly figures and hybrid human-animal characters informed by the artist’s own dreams, as well as the spiritual and metaphysical traditions with which she was surrounded as a child.
