Chisenhale Gallery: Thao Nguyen Phan, 'Becoming Alluvium' Private View

As part of East End Day Chisenhale Gallery is offering Frieze VIPs the opportunity to view Becoming Alluvium by Thao Nguyen Phan before public opening hours on Saturday 10 October, 10am-12pm.

Becoming Alluvium is the first solo exhibition in a UK institution by Thao Nguyen Phan and continues Phan’s ongoing research about the Mekong River which runs through Tibet, China, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Composed of two elements – a single channel film work and a series of lacquer and silk paintings – the works simultaneously explore real and imaginary worlds. The exhibition includes a new film commission, which will be screened three times each hour. Viewing times will be 10.00am, 10.20am, 10.40am, 11.00am, 11.20am, 11.40am.
