Poetics of Flight

Concurrent with Manifestation, the artist’s solo exhibition at the gallery in London, Oscar Murillo presented recent works on paper in an Online Viewing Room titled Poetics of Flight.

Murillo’s recent work makes pointed reference to air travel, with airplanes having become an important site of production for the artist. In his own words, flight is “not just a means of travel but a sacred ‘other’ space, the aeroplane seat itself becoming a unique ‘studio’ at a remove, a non-place which is both physically confined and freed from being in any real geographical location.”
