Klára Hosnedlová

White Cube Bermondsey is pleased to present Klára Hosnedlová's (b. 1990, Uherské Hradiště, Czech Republic) first solo exhibition in the UK and debut with the gallery.

Conceived as part-stage, part-laboratory, the artist presents an immersive installation that incorporates her signature photorealist embroideries with large-scale sculpture, textile works and living mycelium fungus elements. Cultivated in her studio over several months, this is the first time the artist has worked with fungus as a medium, and parts of the surface will continue to evolve throughout the exhibition.

Titled Echo, the exhibition is a continuation of Hosnedlová's critically acclaimed commission ‘embrace' at Berlin's Hamburger Bahnhof and coincides with a site-specific commission for the atrium of the refurbished New Museum, New York.
