Sculptor and filmmaker Naheed Raza has been commissioned to create a new short film titled Sand. Shot at the edge of The Empty Quarter in UAE, Sand is a meditation on the strange, silent power of the desert. The transience, mobility and immersive quality of the shifting sand acts as a metaphor not only for time but also relates to thresholds of seeing, thinking and being.
COMMA 23 Jedediah Caesar
On entering the rear gallery visitors are presented with one of Caesar’s characteristic cut-resin multi-panelled wall sculptures in which found objects and detritus are petrified in coloured resin. In response to the particular architecture of the rear gallery at Bloomberg SPACE Caesar has also created a series of casts installed along, and restricting access to, the balcony space.
