Museum 52 is delighted to present 'What I don't know about space', Esther Stocker's debut solo exhibition in London.

Fascinated by 'the vagueness of exact forms', Stocker's work oscillates between the exactitudes of formal minimalism and the ambiguities of abstraction. She builds deviations, optical breaks and hurdles, which simultaneously open-up and withhold the complex systems inherent in her thoroughly architectural forms. By introducing these layered optical breaks and interstices, Stocker 'unworks' rigid structures and beliefs, finding new meaning in the abstract.

Esther Stocker's installations and associated paintings are abstract compositions in space; drawings animated in three dimensions by material, colour and form. For this exhibition she has created a site-specific installation and a series of painted works, all continuing her investigations into the logics and rules inherent in depictions of space.
