The Future Rewound & The Cabinet of Souls Exhibition by Nadia Kaabi-Linke

The Mosaic Rooms are pleased to present the first UK solo show by Nadia Kaabi-Linke. The Future Rewound & The Cabinet of Souls features recent work and specially commissioned site-specific installations.

The exhibition is formed in two parts, both inspired by the history of the gallery’s building which, more than a century ago, served as the domicile for Imre Kiralfy, the man responsible for many of the grand exhibitions at Earls Court, White City and Olympia. Kiralfy brought curiosities from all parts of the global empire to England, where the Victorian public was eager to view such spectacles. The exhibition is conceived to reflect these last hundred years and the structures of power that thread colonialism and capitalism, captivity and control, the observed and observing.

Kaabi-Linke’s practice relates to the way geography and politics inform the identity of both the individual and the collective. Her work questions society’s invisible mechanisms of control and unseen violences.

Exhibition Private View: 13.10.2014, 6.30pm-9.30pm.
