American artist Lynda Benglis subverts expectations with new bronze sculptures and otherworldly coloured eggs in a new solo show at Thomas Dane Gallery, London
Lynda Benglis’ show at London’s Thomas Dane resembles the site of an alien invasion – if the aliens had an innate sense of material, colour and form.
Benglis has worked with ceramics since the 1990s and describes her process as a dance of sorts. This dance is visible on the surfaces of these sculptures, a physicality passed to the viewers as their bodies gyrate, bend and warp in the sculpture’s reflection. While the bronze sculptures are thoroughly grounded, Benglis’ jelly-like neon-coloured polyurethane eggs sprout from the walls in globular incandescence., 2017, in particular, takes every inch of willpower not to touch and is as bodily and carnal as the wax paintings and poured latex sculptures for which Benglis is best known. Its seductive hot-pink surface undulates and almost appears to move. The nods to fertility and new life are difficult to avoid, but what grows within remains a mystery.
