Phoebe Collings-James’ solo show “A ROSE, A BRIDGE, A HOUSE” at Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery, London, on view until June 14, 2026
The works are influenced by cuneiform tablets and Ashanti folklore, as well as multi-disciplinary practices including the artist’s extensive work with sound design.
New sculptures from the ongoing series Infidels (2023) will be on display which use Caribbean coiling techniques. They feature elongated forms and open mouths suggesting a human or animal-like act of screaming, expressing joy, resistance or expulsion. The works continue Collings-James’s investigation of the concept of the infidel as representing the figure of the outsider.
