Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Berni Searle’s powerful photographic and moving image works explore how the social and political transmit to the body, particularly in relation to her upbringing in Apartheid-era South Africa. This two-screen installation shows the artist from different angles as white flour and water cascade onto her skin, then kneading the flour and water into dough. Snow White defies linear interpretation and is a poetic meditation on race, the self and feminine labour.
