Rosa-Johan Uddoh: Practice Makes Perfect

Comprising of new writing and works drawn from, and a part of, Uddoh’s 2021 exhibition at Focal Point Gallery, ‘Practice Makes Perfect’ focuses on themes of radical self-love, inspired by black feminist practice and writing. Through performance, film, installation and sound, Uddoh explores an infatuation with places, objects and celebrities in British popular culture, and the effects of these on self-formation. She is influenced by her architectural background, rooting stories in specific spaces and materials. Co-published by Book Works and Focal Point Gallery as part of our Co-Series, in association with the Bluecoat, and The Bower.
