The first UK solo exhibition of South African photographer, Nico Krijno will open at Beetles + Huxley Gallery in March. The exhibition will showcase 21 photographs, including new works from his ongoing series ‘New Gestures’ and ‘Generator’, illustrating Krijno’s playful concern with the deconstruction of the still life genre and the interplay of contrasting images and textures, volume and form.
The subjects of Krijno’s still lifes are often temporary, unstable constructions, made of overlooked or ephemeral objects. These structures are created only to be photographed; often toppling or falling to pieces the moment the shutter clicks.
The Fluid Right Edge runs from 22 March to 22 April 2017 at Beetles + Huxley Gallery, 3-5 Swallow Street, London, W1B 4DE. Admission is free.
