Cooke Latham Gallery is delighted to announce representation of Lisa-Marie Harris.
Lisa-Marie Harris is a contemporary artist from Trinidad & Tobago, living and working in London. Her work addresses the objectification of women by interrogating how their bodies are reduced to functional surfaces, stretched and reassembled into contested sites of desire and extraction. Combining organic materials (such as raw linen, calabash, and archival leather) with deconstructed industrial parts and metals reclaimed from the domestic spaces of feminine labour (apartment intercoms, babystrollers, highchairs, etc), Harris' work is informed by a personal history of motherhood and reproduction; Trinidadian and Afro-Caribbean culture, mythology, ecology and migration.
