Sarah Ball, Elliot, 2021

Londoners, are you looking for a good Sunday exhibition? We recommend British artist Sarah Ball’s newly opened solo show at Stephen Friedman Gallery. Ball’s arresting portraits “explore the gap between who we are and how we present ourselves to the world”, writes Chloë Ashby in an interview with Ball for Elephant. “I’ve always been interested in the manifestation of our identity and the aesthetic choices we make,” Ball expands. “But it goes beyond that… I’m looking for empathy, and I’m looking at the gaze.” Discover more about the show, and Ball’s process, here.
