Friday 1st December, 7 – 11pm: NudeTexture — Omer Ga’ash Winter Moving Image Commission Launch

Join us for the opening event of our Winter Moving Image Commission NudeTexture by Omer Ga’ash for a multisensory one-night event of video art, DJ sets, performance, artist book launch, and fashion; exploring new ways of seeing and experiencing the human body.

In his new solo exhibition NudeTexture, the multidisciplinary artist Omer Ga’ash explores the human body in relation to environments, spaces, other bodies, and itself. Ga’ash’s surreal, colourful, and mesmerising work invites viewers into an immersive experience, in which they can reflect upon new possibilities of transformation and spirituality of our earthly bodies.

The three video art, commissioned by Shoreditch Arts Club and curated by Tamara Admoni, feature different patterns in motion, which are collages of bodily elements merging and camouflaging with botanical, architectural, and cultural motifs. Together, they create dynamic textures of shapes, lines, and colours that are constantly changing. Corresponding to one another, the videos offer diverse perspectives on the connection between the human body and its surroundings.

During the launch event, the video art will be accompanied by live DJ sets that will echo the essence of the work, creating an audiovisual experience. In addition, a commissioned performance will respond to the video art, blurring the boundaries between the art projected on the screens and the physical live space of the viewers. Moreover, Ga’ash's new artist book, Mapping Bodies, will be launched at the event, and t-shirts with the artist’s print in collaboration with FIA fashion studio will be for sale during the event.

The event is a multidisciplinary celebration of visual art, fashion, music, and performance. In a dreamlike and immersive atmosphere, the audience is invited to explore the possibilities of bodily perception and beyond.

Members have access to all events in our programme.
