We’re happy to announce that our current exhibition, Silvia Ziranek - BY A THREAD, will have a finissage on 5th July 2pm - 4pm. This will include live readings at 3:15pm.

Ziranek’s project at MOCA London comprises BY A THREAD incorporating UNSUNG SONGS, a multi-media exhibition combining beautifully and economically made sculpture and the written word. BY A THREAD is a new, large scale (over 10 foot) mobile that will dominate the gallery space, making ingenious use of everyday materials, combining text with textiles (carpet tiles, wallpaper, picture frames). Through poetry, text-in-textiles, and installation Ziranek addresses violent, abusive behaviour towards women and girls and focuses on offering strength through solidarity and acknowledging others’ experiences by finding words and ways of opposing emotional and physical abuse.

Featured work: SHE’D SAY, 2026, filmed at MOCA London

B.A.T. is a monumental mobile suspended from the gallery ceiling. It displays textile panels containing single words and phrases from UNSUNG SONGS; a wall text ‘THE MY SCAR’; and an audio recording of the 15 SONGS. Derived from personal experience Ziranek’s poems, always spoken (never sung) address vulnerability, aggressive male hierarchy and emotional un/intelligence. Ziranek hopes to empower women and girls by creating a provocative arena for contemplation.

Next week we’re delighted to be hosting the book launch of 12 Untitled, by Marisa Culatto at MOCA London. This will coincide with Photo London.

Marisa Culatto
1 2 U N T I T L E D
With 12 Haiku by Yuzo Ono
Tuesday 12 May 2026
6 pm - 7.30pm

Marisa Culatto and Yuzo Ono first met a few years ago through a collaboration on a visual art and haiku exhibition organized by a London gallery. Their initial conversations developed into a dialogue, during which Ono expressed a particular interest in Culatto’s 12 Untitled works. From this exchange, the idea for this book was born: Ono would compose twelve haiku, each responding to one of Culatto’s twelve Untitled pieces. These works were originally commissioned by MOCA London as part of their 2020 WE (Web Exhibitions) program.
