Gareth Nyandoro - Wired: Online Auction London Thursday, May 18, 2023 | Phillips
  • “Situated somewhere between painting, etching, and collage, Gareth Nyandoro’s artworks buzz with a din of textures that threaten each canvas with the possibility of rupture. Gestural swathes of ink writhe in a frenetic dance with sinewy pieces of paper and the razor thin striations of Nyandoro’s hallmark kucheka-cheka technique — a method of cross hatching formed by small incisions into the canvas, which Nyandoro then sponges over with ink. Though discrete, these cuts enliven the canvasses with fraught urgency, leaving them vulnerable to bursting open.”
    —Zoe Hopkins
