Callum Hill
E-Minor
From November 13, 2025 to January 17, 2026
Opening on November 13
Callum Hill’s visual essay E-Minor takes as its starting point a linoleum tile in the basement of the artist’s grandparents, which depicts Lou Jacobs, a famous American clown who became the first living person featured on a US postage stamp. The clown's iconography and pop culture’s ominous mythology of basements become a vehicle for enquiring into the human condition. Shot between the US and Europe, Hill inserts a geographic fragmentation to reveal the increasingly constrictive precarities of current-day capitalism and the encroaching omnipresence of ideologies that divide and disempower people.
