Emanuel De Carvalho: code new state: Gathering London

26 Apr - 1 Jun 2024

Gathering is delighted to announce a solo exhibition featuring London-based Portuguese-Canadian artist Emanuel de Carvalho.

code new state will showcase a collection of monumental paintings alongside two sculptural installations spread across the two gallery floors. The works reflect on perception as a neurobiological construct while exploring the notion of plasticity, as elucidated by the French philosopher Catherine Malabou. The images are steeped in unreality through subtle distortions of perspective and depth, creating a lingering sense of discomfort by disrupting the viewer’s anticipatory responses.
