David Zwirner presents Pennungal: Lives of women and girls, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Indian artist Sosa Joseph, at the gallery’s London location. A masterful colourist and storyteller, Joseph creates atmospheric paintings marked by a striking visual and psychological complexity, in which figures from her South Indian family and milieu mingle with open-ended motifs from the natural world. Her work offers an alternative approach to the artistic tradition of history painting—one in which everyday moments take on the heft of the extraordinary and individual recollections coalesce into a richly tapestried communal history.
