Linda Bell

Linda Bell presents an intimate durational performance that navigates repetition, memory and materiality. Working across sculptural processes and live intervention, Bell’s practice unfolds through subtle bodily presence, careful pacing and attention to gesture. The performance is presented within the exhibition Methodical Process alongside works by Nnena Kalu and Marie Gyger and realised in collaboration with Action Space, London. The atmosphere is meditative and finely calibrated, inviting close attention to process and detail.
