Eskalation is Alexandra Bircken first solo exhibition in a UK institution. The exhibition shows a series of recent work by herself, showing a new approach in her practice. Her concepts are around 20th century sculpture such as males verse female and the handmade versus the mechanical.
I found her work quite spooky and disturbing but that's the type of artwork that interests me the most as it intrigues me. I really like the unusual skin like bodies as they look dead or like they are slowly dyeing.

| Fellow, 2014 |
Fellow was one of my favourite pieces in the exhibition as it just dominated the whole room.
At 2 pm on the 17th of January I watched the Young theatre practitioners aged 14-19 responding to the contemporary art through performance.
I found this really interesting to watch as I've never watched anything like this before but I found it very intriguing and would watch another response to art through performance again.
