In collaboration with The Bomb Factory Art Foundation, Lisson Gallery presents an off-site exhibition by two London based artists, Raheel Khan and Tiffany Wellington. A Public Safety Concern marks the first collaborative project between Khan and Wellington, bringing together site-specific works by the artists across film, installation and sound. The exhibition takes as its locus the sculptural gestures inherent in everyday movement and objects, and a foregrounding of the otherwise ordinary.
Khan and Wellington’s new installations respond to and incorporate The Bomb Factory’s asymmetry and architectural features, notably its weathered concrete supporting columns and the seven floor-to-ceiling windows that frame life on
the Marylebone Road beyond. What at first glance appears the result of each artists’ improvisational processes soon reveals itself as a mise-en-scène, with the works’ various elements dropping in and out of interaction with one another, as well as with external contributors. Perceptions of the internal and external start to shift, prompting a re-evaluation of our role within the composition, and the orchestrated versus the organic.
