London-based artist Rana Begum’s giant puffs of colourful mesh are always irresistible – more so in this latest, cascading installation titled Rana Begum: No.1367 Mesh at Pallant House Gallery, Chichester, where they take over the gallery’s historic 18th century staircase, injecting vibrant colour into the space, with multiple possible perspectives and interactions with the light. The monumental No.1367 Mesh was designed specifically for Pallant House Gallery.

The British-Bangladeshi artist said of the work: “I’m interested in making colour feel tangible, giving it a physicality that accentuates how one tone interacts with another… it’s always important that the relationship between colour, geometry and texture creates a feeling of calm and tranquillity. I am fascinated by this duality – how the experience of exhilaration and meditation can coexist.”

“By bringing the relationship between form, colour and light into focus, I hope my work can extend beyond a gallery context and encourage the viewer to become more attuned to their everyday surroundings, more sensitive to the varying ways these three elements interact and the moments when they align to create something beautiful.” If you miss this one – Begum has a solo exhibition forthcoming in September at Kate MacGarry’s East London gallery.
