Sophie Mallett is an artist and filmmaker working in London. Her work revolves around landscapes of global capital: from the swelling border towns of ‘Fortress Europe’ to the virtual factories of microwork. Developed out of research and contact with these physical, social and virtual environments, her practice concentrates on how financial, architectural and social worlds are constructed and controlled, and in turn affect our ability to co-exist. Using video, text, installation and sound she pursues a practice at the intersection of affect, politics and value. Through close attention she opens up spaces of discomfort, both within and outside of the gallery, that acknowledge clandestine societal norms, complicity and dysfunctional ethics. Educated at Open School East, London College of Communication and Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Mallett’s practice is both interdisciplinary and collaborative, with a reflexive emphasis on how individuals work together. Recent works and projects include: ‘The distance is nowhere’, GAM, Palermo (2018); ‘To whom it was given’, Groundworks, Cornwall (2018); Artist-in-residence, Hangar/ Gasworks, Lisbon (2017); ‘National Anthems’, ICA, London & CCA, Derry~Londonderry (2017); ‘Portrait (for a score)’, Tenderpixel, London (2017); ‘Paradise Island’, OUTPOST, Norwich (2017); ‘Hypersea’, Turner Contemporary, Margate (2016); ‘Our country, our love, our sadness’, [SPACE], London (2016); ‘Horrid little hands’, Eastside Projects, Birmingham (2016); ‘Liminal States’, RCA, London, (2016); ‘Project Radio’, &Model, Leeds, (2015); ‘Sonic blind dates’, Tate Britain, London, (2015).
