Following six months as the Nina Stewart Artist-in-Residence in the South London Gallery’s Outset Artists’ Flat, Eoghan Ryan presents a multi-faceted installation of new work in the first floor galleries. Drawing on his everyday encounters with people, places, animals and objects in the course of his stay, Ryan translates his experiences of them into an assemblage of disparate and often obscure references. Offering glimpses of the thought processes binding these elements together, a short film exposes the practice by which they were selected and lures us into its bizarre logic.

The Nina Stewart Artist's Residency with the South London Gallery and SPACE is funded by The Nina and Roger Stewart Charitable Trust, with additional support from Bloomberg.
