Victor Boullet's Dundee Marmalade — a review for Plinth
Victor Boullet is a painter of the everyday. His latest exhibition Dundee Marmalade at The Artist's Room is full of hands, cups, food, shovels and birds.

The Faces in the Back: Nicole Eisenman exhibition review
Among the paintings, video work, a collage wall, comic strips and an array of sculptures currently on display in a retrospective at the Whitechapel Gallery, all the works seem to ask, what if something bad has already happened?

OF MYCELIA AND MEN: Nour Mobarak exhibition review
Within the West End’s Rodeo Gallery, there are six sculptures, five mounted on the walls in arch-top plinths, or niches, and the sixth – a metallic green snake – lies in wait on the cobbled floor. The artist has reconstructed a miniature version of Peri and Rinuccini’s ‘Sala Dei Nicchie’, or hallway of niches, each nic

Fictitious Capital: Season Two of HBO's Industry review—Plinth

With its depiction of cutthroat market logics pressed into a carousel of high-achieving narcissists – the newly-released second season of HBO’s Industry w
