David Zwirner is pleased to present Possessive, an exhibition of work by the London- and Los Angeles–based artist P. Staff on view at the gallery’s East 69th Street location in New York. Staff’s expansive practice—which includes sculpture, video, installation, and writing—explores how language, desire, and institutions define and regulate embodied experience. Responding subtly to the space’s architectural cues, the artist’s installation—which includes a central video work projected across the gallery’s three stories, and a new series of sculptures—simulates the sensation of a body as it is infiltrated and surveilled. This will be Staff’s first solo exhibition in New York.
