A Corner With was a series of exhibitions taking place in our studio in Dalston in London. Each artists was invited a month before the launch evening, to use the studio space as their studio and create new work. Sketches of the floor plan was asked by each artists to see how ideas and the space transforms.

A voice comes to one in the dark

Imagine.

 S. Beckett

With this sentence, Erola Arcalís invites the viewer to an intimate space. We enter into a cave with only a few references to Greek mythology as a guide. The words “Lethe” and “Aletheia” in Greek translate as “to forget, to conceal” and “to remember, to reveal”, respectively; but it refers also to truth and its negation, untruth. Abstract images coexist with figurative ones, playing with scale and subject. A fragmented still life, an orphaned trace, a singled stalagmite; constitute different voices of memories.

Erola Arcalís (Maó, Menorca, 1986) graduated from MA Photography at the Royal College of Art in 2017. Recent exhibitions include 'Monochrome', Limehouse Town Hall, London, December 2017; RCA Graduate Show, London, July 2017; 'Vtopos', Studio Riverlight, February 2017; 'Arcadia', Morgan, London, April, 2016; WIP show, Royal College of Art, London, 2016.
