Rashid Johnson: Anima

October 14 - December 21
Rashid Johnson

WHAT
The American artist is celebrated for his exploration of identity and self-reflection, and his multi-faceted exhibition encompasses painting, sculpture, and film. Drawing inspiration from animism, the artist delves into the spiritual essence of all objects, whether animate or inanimate. The showcase introduces 2 new series of paintings — Soul Paintings and God Paintings. It encapsulates Johnson’s ongoing exploration of the interconnectedness between body and soul.

WHY
The exhibition’s themes of vulnerability, connection, and transcendence create a compelling experience that resonates on both personal and universal levels; the richly-layered works beckon contemplation of the connections between materiality and spirituality. The artist skilfully weaves motifs such as the vesica piscis into his visual lexicon, symbolising liminality and enigmatic realms.
