Jerico Contemporary is delighted to present our second solo exhibition with Australian artist Anna Pogossova, Anticipation Machines. The exhibition will be available to view via the Online Viewing Room from Tuesday the 8th of September to Saturday the 26th of September. 

Drawing on the artist’s previous body of work X Satellite that showed at the gallery in 2019, Anticipation Machines is a series that occupies the space between fabricated worlds and our reality. Exploring this idea through her practice that unifies photography and sculpture, Pogossova looks to structures like theme parks, playgrounds and built environments to create a dialogue about how we interact with and relate to pop-culture phenomena. Consisting of six artworks at the nexus of two mediums inspired by touchstones of cinema and the fantasy realm, Anticipation Machines sees Pogossova mould and shape a new otherworldly universe
