Faces

4 Herald Street
London, E2 6JT

28 July – 7 August 2021 inclusive

 

Sion and Moore is honoured to announce Faces, an exhibition of new work by multidisciplinary artist and magic movement obsessive Dick Jewell. The show will present a film, Faces (2021) that sets a carefully sequenced progression of still images in relation with the rhythm and lyrics of ‘Faces’ by Run-D.M.C. A large-scale digital collage, One Blood (2021), examines cultural appropriation as enacted en masse.
