M.E. favourites Nendo will be presenting two solo exhibitions in London from September 20th.

The first is 'Thin Black Lines‘ - a selection inspired by the theme of outlines.

"Slight black lines like the traces of sketches drawn in the air made transparent surfaces and volumes appear, [to] which we assigned practical functions. The outlines remained after simplifying paintings of plants and animals. They are condensed expressions of meaning, similar to Japanese calligraphy." Nendo explain.

The designs gently break the relationship of before and behind, and traverse at times the space between two and three dimensions. Multi-faceted and constantly morphing, they move alternately between the becoming and collapse of form.

You'll be able to see these works at Phillips de Pury & Company at Saatchi Gallery at the Duke of York's HQ, King's Road, from September the 20th until October the 31st.

A second show, is 'Blurry White Surfaces' composed primarily of work shown in the ‘Ghost Stories’ show that toured New York and Milan earlier in the year; have a look at a few of these pieces in our previous coverage here.

This show will also be at a Phillips de Pury & Company space, but at Howick Place, and is open from September the 22nd until October the 31st.
