Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum @ The Curve, Barbican

18 September 2024 - 5 January 2025

Enter a world of Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum’s creation in ‘It Will End in Tears’.   The exhibition is presented in a series of life-size dioramas; viewing paintings in a narrative sequence, as a story unfurls of a ‘femme fatale’ film noir character living in an imagined colonial outpost.  You discover what happens when the main character deviates from the norm and does not follow the rules dictated to her by society.

Featuring drawing, painting and installation, Sunstrum’s artworks reflect her experience of living across Africa, Southeast Asia, and North America. Her boundary-crossing practice is imbued with formative experiences of a life lived at, across, and in the liminal spaces between borders, alongside notions of home and wholeness.
