Description

The first major UK exhibition and accompanying publication on contemporary artist Ed Atkins.

For over a decade, Ed Atkins has been making videos and animations that trace the dwindling gap between representation and embodied experience. Using his desires, experiences and body as a model, Atkins' works misuse contemporary technologies of representation to critically reflect what they have done to images and our sense of self.

This career-spanning exhibition will assemble paintings, writing, embroideries and drawings alongside Atkins' moving-image works in a succession of large-scale installations.

Troubled by melancholy, undermined by bathos and tempered with humour, Atkins' works pit a weightless digital life against a corporal world of heft, craft, and touch. Overwhelmingly, Atkins' works allegorise loss, intimacy, and love.
