Tanoa Sasraku’s current exhibition at PEER Gallery, Hoxton is included in Artforum’s Critics’ Pick by Edmée Lepercq. The exhibition runs until 20 May.
On the exhibition, Lepercq writes: “Each of us is an ‘archeological site’, Lucy Sante argued in her 1998 memoir, The Factory of Facts. ‘What passes for roots is actually a matter of sediment, of accretion, of chance and juxtaposition.’ This notion of the self as strata came to mind while visiting Tanoa Sasraku’s exhibition “Liths,” wherein the British-Ghanaian artist uses geological imagery to examine her personal ties to the United Kingdom’s landscape.”
