• Remnant Revealed 2023 Acrylic resin, pigment, polyurethane and aluminium 118 x 82 x 11cm Currently included in Poor Form @sidmotiongallery The exhibition presents bodies at the edge of coherence: ungainly, exaggerated and resistant to refinement. Moving between the uncanny and the mechanical, the artists position the body as both a failing system and a generative structure. Influenced by surrealism and clowning, they depict emotional, absurd figures that oscillate between humour and disturbance, heightening a sense of chaos and vulnerability. Open Thursday - Saturday 12 - 6pm or by appointment. Until Saturday 7th March. @nicola_bealing @daisy_collingridge @emmacousin @grimesoona @annie.whiles @tom.woolner 📸: Wenxuan Wang • • • #poorform #remnantrevealed #sidmotiongallery

• Poor Form continues @sidmotiongallery Open Thursday - Saturday 12-6pm or by appointment. Until Saturday 7th March. ‘Across the exhibition, bodies convulse,distort, ooze and squidge, performing their own awkwardness. Hard angles, swollen forms and unstable geometries evoke machines or automatons whose implied functionality is continually undermined….’ @daisy_collingridge @emmacousin @grimesoona @annie.whiles @tom.woolner @nicola_bealing 📸 Wenxuan Wang • • • #poorform #theluddite
