Text by MUSE Team

“I am interested in how crisis and failure are absorbed into materials with a strong reference to global transaction and how capitalist structures work.” – I.B.

The White Cube announces a full exhibition by Ibrahim Mahama, at the Bermondsey galleries in London, opened until November 7th 2021. Ibrahim Mahama, considered as one of the highest exponent of contemporary art from Africa, has been noticed thanks to his political and ethical references and transformation of materials used in his large scales installations. Through his works the artist reinvent the usage of waste urban materials, (sacks, wood and others), in order to express his critic to migration, globalisation and economic change.
