Annie Trevorah Plant Power 2 December 2024 - 30 May 2025 Opening Reception: Tuesday 3 December, 6-9pm Upstairs at The Dartmouth Castle (Private Room) 26 Glenthorne Road, Hammersmith, W6 0LS for drinks and canapés     Guided tours throughout the evening of exhibition at: HS Projects, 12 Hammersmith Grove, London W6 7AP     With her sculptures Annie Trevorah conjures an alien species defined by adaptive features that safeguard survival in a precarious future. Her part human / part plant hybrids have stood their ground in galleries, parks and gardens. Plant Power marks their propagation into the hustle and bustle of an office environment. Showcasing twelve works including a painting to introduce a new body of work dedicated to the maritime realm, groups of sensual cyborgs and symbiotic totems are huddled in opposite corners, exchanging water cooler stories under the watchful gaze of their mutant supervisors, whose predatory and fallible characteristics serve as reminders of the effects of climate change on all life-forms. Fusing organic and synthetic materials into intriguing monuments to human-plant interconnectivity, Trevorah merges eco-feminist theory with subtle humour to encourage reflection and reassurance.  Plant Power is located at 12 Hammersmith Grove, a short walk from Hammersmith station. The exhibition is visible 24/7 and open to visitors between 10am and 6pm from Monday to Friday, or by appointment.   Completing her MA in Sculpture at the RCA in 2023, Annie Trevorah has been selected for prestigious exhibitions both nationally and internationally. She had her first London solo show Symbiosis in February 2023, followed by Triffids, celebrating Chelsea Physic Garden's 350th anniversary in October, and Nature is a Cyborg at ALICE BLACK Gallery in May 2024. Public works include Memorial to a Memorial temporarily replacing Barbara Hepworth's Single Form in Battersea Park, commissioned by Wandsworth Council in 2022, and this year's ANANAS for Fulham Palace to commemorate the 50th anniversary of opening its house and gardens to the public, later taking up its place in Holland Park as part of KCAW.
