Faile - Lost in Glimmering Shadows

If you're in London you have a few more days to check out one of the best shows you will see this year. From the press release:

"Faile’s work takes the visual vocabulary of popular culture, urban decay and consumer excess, and reworks them into new, exciting and sometimes troubling narratives for the viewer. Layers of posters torn away from walls or comic book-inspired remixes, Faile’s instantly recognizable practice refers to a visual culture that is sometimes disposable, yet demands serious attention.
 
Lost in Glimmering Shadows features a new series of paintings and sculptures which explore an ambivalent attitude to the hypermodern culture of today’s USA. As well as incorporating images and texts from the chaos of the modern urban landscape, the works use imagery, stories and patterns from Native American Indian culture. A metaphor of sorts emerges in this juxtaposition; the expanse of contemporary commercialism at the expense of society's connection with nature and spirit."

The venue address is -
Lilian Baylis Old School,
Lollard St,
London,
SE11 6PY

The show will run for 10 days from the 7th to the 16th of November, open daily from 11am - 7pm.
