Frieze

Maryam Hoseini | Green Art Gallery | 15 April – 24 May 

The elegantly swirling, carnal paintings in Maryam Hoseini’s solo show ‘Swells’ have the recursiveness typical of a Solitaire endgame. Here, however, instead of cascading cards, you get a tessellation of checkerboard tiles and body parts: hairy human calves sit alongside spiky insect legs in Psychic Fold (2025) or furred thatches in Bruised Cosmos (2025); while countless disembodied, lactating breasts are dotted throughout. The fragmented, flattened architecture suggests an urbex setting except, instead of a post-industrial bunker, the flesh-toned palette indicates an intimate, interior landscape.
