This June, Los Angeles-based artist Nikita Gale summons a storm of colour and light to screens in London, Seoul and Tokyo. SOME WEATHER spotlights the creative labour of Black women whose voices feature in some of rock music’s most acclaimed recordings, from the Rolling Stones to David Bowie. Archival footage of background singers is rendered unrecognisable, manipulated to such a degree that their images exceed the scale of easy consumption.
To coincide with this major new commission, Gale has created this new signed limited edition giclée print. Available to purchase on CIRCA for one month only (1.6.21 - 30.6.21).
Nikita Gale is an artist based in Los Angeles. Gale’s work applies the lenses of material culture and sound studies to consider how authority is negotiated within political, social, and economic systems. The artist has exhibited with various national and international institutions, including MoMA PS1; The Studio Museum in Harlem (USA); Cubitt (UK); Nottingham Contemporary (UK); Ceysson & Benetiere (France); and the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (USA).
