Kate Howe Debut London Solo Exhibition: The Erotics of Power


55 High St ,Hampton Wick , KT1 4DG

17th Feb 2022 - 20th Feb 2022

UNTIL Sunday 20th February

For the first time, see Howe's complete cycle of paintings The Erotics of Power.

Howe states "Almost always I paint about power and control. I am into the deep machinations and relational politics of my alien creatures–sensual manipulative beasts. They turn and dive, penetrate and flow, stream and wind around each other like eels. Never settling into the organic body or alien autopsy–they want to be beautiful, but just end up uneasy and sometimes trembling. My creatures turn into each other and back into themselves. They are just bad with boundaries. Even a single creature may feel like a struggle for power and control, as if they are trying to both turn and flatten, trying to become one face or another. They exist in all dimensions, orientations, and timelines. My alien creatures exist outside of gender and only in the relation of self-to-self and self-to-other. They are expressions of visceral monstrous envy, greed, succulence, desire, ache–our growling ego."

Kate will be giving an artist's talk at the Exhibition on February 16th at 6:45 pm which will last about 30 minutes.

The show will run Thursday through Sunday 12-6 pm for walk-in viewing. Kate will not be in the studio on Thursday.

Please book ahead for the Private View Wednesday 16th from 5 pm - 9 pm
