LONDON
.- Heather Phillipson (b.1978, London) is the next artist to undertake the annual Tate Britain Commission. This major commission is the latest response to the unique architecture and context of the neo-classical Duveen Galleries at the heart of Tate Britain.
Audacious and disconcerting, Heather Phillipsons expansive, multimedia projects include video, sculpture, installation, music, poetry and digital media. Described by the artist as quantum thought-experiments, her works often carry a sense of latent threat a feeling that received ideas, images, and the systems that underpin them may be on the verge of collapse.
