Mondays Are Fridays

Presented across the gallery’s two spaces, the inaugural exhibition Mondays Are Fridays by Coco Capitán brings together paintings on canvas and on boat sails, photographs, texts, drawings, sculptures, and publications.

Born in Seville in 1992, and having “paradoxically had to work commercially in order to finance [her] fine art studies” in London, where she now lives, Coco Capitán was early on invited to let her personal research permeate her commissioned works, establishing a clear continuity in her practice between experimentation and application.

Through intimate references to navigation, childhood, sport, or dreams, Mondays Are Fridays articulates a body of work in which the diversion of signs, humour, melancholy, and a keen sense of aphorism become ways of holding steady.
