Matèria is pleased to present In Plain Sight: Photography, Power and Public Space in Britain, an exhibition of photographic works, co-curated in dialogue with Christiane Monarchi. Through the intersection of language and the use of public space, the exhibition explores photography as a transformative site for action and a declaration of intent—whether political, cultural, or personal.

At its core, In Plain Sight is both a reflection on Britain’s rich photographic landscape and a testament to its profound contributions to social discourse with a particular focus on the last twenty years.

Bringing together the work of eight lens-based artists, including Anna Fox, Karen Knorr and Bettina von Zwell,  In Plain Sight opens a dialogue with specific histories of the United Kingdom which continue to influence visual culture today. The photographs, video and sculptural works included from these UK-based artists oscillate between fiction and document, while conceptually grounded in the experience and existential analysis of contemporary culture in Britain, where it originated and from where it ventures abroad.
