Opening in January 2025, White Cube Mason’s Yard is pleased to present a solo exhibition by American artist Virginia Overton.
In 2024 Overton transformed salvaged materials from the historic, decommissioned Domino Sugar Factory site in Brooklyn, New York, into a wall-based public sculpture now installed within the building. Enamelled steel, hardware and steel off-cuts from this commission have been repurposed and reassembled into a new series of sculptures. Informed by line, form and colour the wall-mounted reliefs featured in this exhibition continue Overton’s exploration of the poetic tensions and inherent ‘otherness’ within her chosen materials.
Overton has said, ‘Reusing existing materials as a way to extend the life of objects is integral to my practice. It was a privilege to be able to work with a piece of history from America’s industrial heyday and reimagine this historic artifact as a sculpture that honours the sign’s storied past while embracing its possibilities for the future’.
