Megan Mulrooney is pleased to present What Slips Beneath the Sugar, a solo exhibition by Alma Berrow. For the presentation, the traditional gallery layout is traded for a tablescape filled with trompe l'oeil ceramics. The exhibition looks to the 1970s as a particular touchstone, an era where retro glamour met a hint of the grotesque. Berrow leans into this friction, creating works that are luscious yet uncanny. By transforming the gallery into a communal tablescape, Berrow invites viewers to imagine themselves at the table.
Alma Berrow (b. 1992; lives and works in Dorest) has exhibited with LAMB Gallery, London and Galeria Hilario Galguera, Mexico City. Group presentations include Cerámica Suro: A Story of Collaboration, Production, and Collecting in the Contemporary Arts at the Dallas Museum of Art; Form: (Women) Makers at Sotheby’s, London; In Real Life at Timothy Taylor, London.
