Martine Syms @ Sade Coles

In this exhibition, Grande Calme, a screen holds a virtual reality avatar of the artist, Martine Syms, programmed with her physical tics and way of talking. We’re meant to interact, via that means with which we interact with most people in our lives: our phones. It might sound borderline cringe, but Syms’s often deft negotiation of personal histories, cultural touchstones and self-conscious representation should provide a critical cracked mirror to the debates on race and identity that need a broader public platform in the UK.
