FLO BROOKS
Flo Brooks (b. 1987) is an artist based in West Cornwall. He works across painting, collage, publication, installation and social practice. Merging autobiography with fiction, Brooks’ works coalesce around ideas of selfhood, belonging and temporality, most often taking form in densely layered acrylic paintings that for him act as a kind of repository for complex feeling, memory and social and political histories.
Recent solo exhibitions include: 'Be tru to your rec', Project Native Informant, London, 2022; 'Angletwich', Brighton CCA, which travelled to Tramway, Glasgow, 2020 – 2021, and 'Scrubbers', Project Native Informant, London, 2018. Group exhibitions include 'Bodies in space', MIRROR, Plymouth, 2022, 'SEEN', Newlyn Art gallery and The Exchange, Cornwall, 2022, 'Beano: The Art of breaking the rules', Somerset House, London, 2022, and 'Kiss my genders', Hayward gallery, London, 2019.
