Luke Beech presents Winner Breaks First, his debut solo show at Humber Street Gallery.
The new body of work reshapes the gallery space into a snooker hall pocket realm, found by an artist from another world who explores the game for the first time. Beech promises a “sort of silly but quite revealing ballad of hurt and queerness and madness and joy” which draws on his own experiences and hopes to make sense of them set against a casual game and a swift half.
The show will have installation, videos and a sound piece too. In the gallery you can become a part of the art and take part in a game yourself, amongst the other works on show. At times, Beech’s work can be dark and uneasy or open and raw. Sometimes, a little bit like life, it can be funny and absurd too.
