'Tavares Strachan: There Is Light Somewhere' Illuminates Hidden Histories at Hayward Gallery | stupidDOPE
Briefly

Strachan's exhibition merges playfulness with profound themes, navigating historical bias and invisibility through immersive installations and sculptures that highlight unsung Black pioneers.
At the heart of 'Tavares Strachan: There Is Light Somewhere' is the monumental 'Black Star Liner,' a 14-meter long structure exploring hidden narratives of Black history.
The 'Intergalactic Palace' creates a sound-and-light experience that deepens the viewer's engagement with themes of race, history, and identity from a cosmic perspective.
Through his sculptures submerged in mineral oil, Strachan visually represents the buried stories of Black pioneers, challenging us to confront historical narratives.
