A set of 10 postcards featuring works from the exhibition ‘Alien Shores’ at White Cube Bermondsey (9 July – 7 September 2025).
‘Alien Shores’ explores landscape as a place of memory, imagination, yearning and belonging. Through painting, video, photography and sculpture, the artists included offer speculative, symbolic or surreal depictions of emotional terrain and voyages of the imagination, visions of the distant past or possible futures. These are landscapes once removed: shaped by temporal or cultural distance, filtered through technology, mythology or abstraction. Here, the ground shifts beneath our feet and horizons stretch beyond our grasp; natural forms are reduced to geometry; matter defies its nature, as rock flows like water and earth dissolves into mist; forests glow in radioactive hues, sprouting impossible growths, while scenes rendered with photographic clarity nonetheless signal that they are not of this place or time.
