LONDON.- IMT Gallery presents an exhibition of new work by Sophie Lee. For her latest project Lee has created a two-part video work with individual parts shown simultaneously at IMT Gallery and Gowlett Peaks, which operate as both sides of the same coin with bleeds and crossovers between the two. The works combine video, animation, text and sound.

Through Lee’s work writing and video are presented as a free space for the collision of readymades. Layers and juxtapositions of different materials and qualities form mesmerising, quasi-anthropological arenas of alchemical ciphers and cultural detritus: footage of a local park, super-real objects, lewd graffiti, iPhone video, a Palaeolithic thigh bone, a domestic interior, R&B.

Using collage both as content and form, Lee explores interests in histories of language, the materiality of rubbish and waste, chemical reactions, the body and a gastric approach to information.

Sophie Lee [b. 1988] recently graduated in 2012 with a BA in Fine Art Media from the Slade School of Fine Art, London. Recent exhibitions include Dreamland at Garis and Hahn, New York (2014), M A K R A M I at PLAZAPLAZA, London (2013), Bread Show (in collaboration with Maxime Iten, Robert Self and Will Robinson) at SPACE, London (2013) and Young London 2013 at V22, London (2013).
