Morag Keil,
‘Moarg Kiel’
@ Institute of
Contemporary Arts
—
‘Frequently adopting
a lo-fi, pared-back
aesthetic, incorporating
everyday objects and
found materials alongside
digital innovations that
affect domestic life...’
Born:
1985 – Edinburgh, Scotland.
‘Moarg Kiel’:
Is London-based Keil's
first major solo exhibition
in the UK @ICA, featuring
new and reconceived
works that span the last
eight years of her career,
comprising practices
counting installation, film,
painting and drawing —
through which the artist
seeks to investigate the
impact of data-capitalism
and digital technologies on
contemporary subjectivities.
‘Keil appropriates and
re-presents aspects
of branding strategies
from advertisements &
social media platforms
to investigate & expose
pervasive techniques for
influencing consumerist
desire.’
