Andro Wekua: Some Pheasants in Singularity

Some Pheasants in Singularity is Andro Wekua’s first exhibition at the gallery Sprüth Magers. For this show, Andro Wekua transforms the London gallery by installing a wall constructed of rough breeze blocks behind the large bay window of the gallery. The wall partially obscures the view into the gallery space, hiding a life-sized sculpture of an androgynous adolescent that is suspended from the ceiling of the main gallery room. The figure is both robotic and lifelike. The exhibition also features a group of paintings that combine portraiture, abstraction and figuration.
