Woody De Othello: Faith Like a Rock at Stephen Friedman Gallery in London

London 8 March - 15 May 2024

Stephen Friedman Gallery introduces "Faith Like a Rock," the debut UK solo exhibition by Woody De Othello, known for his diverse practice spanning sculpture, painting, and drawing. Othello's work transforms everyday objects into anthropomorphic vessels, brimming with life and color. This immersive installation at Stephen Friedman Gallery marks a significant evolution in his artistic vision, drawing inspiration from domestic objects, nature, and ancient iconography.

Othello's sculptures, often resembling humanoid figures, are arranged in dynamic compositions that invite viewers to explore themes of spirituality and interconnectedness. Integral to his practice is a reverence for clay, symbolizing a connection to ancestral traditions and the regenerative power of nature. Through "Faith Like a Rock," Othello invites us to reconsider our relationship with the world around us and embrace the transformative potential of art.
