LUX is proud to present a new solo exhibition of London-based artist Sophio Medoidze. BL CK B X: Sophio Medoidze, Jackals and Drones spans more than ten years of artistic practice, bringing together moving image, photography and sound works. Medoidze’s distinct visual style and her signature mode of direct address play with the conventions of both video and the cinema, stripping film of its artifice in a way that it becomes even more artificial.
Her work displays lightness even when dealing with politically charged geographies and patriarchal narratives from which the artist is excluded. Taking both the position of a native and a tourist, Medoidze’s distanced but nuanced approach can be critical and full of empathy at the same time. Whilst the beauty of the Georgian landscape is overwhelming, Medoidze’s taste for the absurd and the self-reflexivity of her address, draw us in and pull us out at the same time.
