The art on display spans several decades in the two separate exhibitions.
Magasin III also has a new work that Hatoum has created especially for the exhibition.
Electrified (variable IV) is a sculpture that at first may seem playful, but when you get close you can get a shock.
- Mona Hatoum often makes objects that have the extremes in them when she is interested in those conditions, says Olga Krzeszowiec Malmsten who is curator at Magasin III.
Mona Hatoum has received a large number of international awards and prizes, participated several times at the prestigious Venice Biennale and exhibited at the world's leading art galleries such as the Center Pompidou and the Tate Modern.
She is originally from Beirut but has lived and worked in London most of her life.
Life in exile has influenced her artistic expression.
Became a political artist
One work that stands out from the two art galleries is the video Roadworks from 1985. It is a performance made in Brixton, an area in south London with many Jamaican immigrants.
In the video, Mona Hatoum walks barefoot with a pair of Dr Martens tied around her ankle, boots that at this time were used both by the British police and by skinheads.
- It is sadly just as relevant today because we see an escalation of police brutality against blacks, as the BLM movement has shown, says Mona Hatoum.
You are considered a political artist, what do you think about it?
- Yes I am political but today my expression is more subtle.
Previously, I expressed a message through performance, but lately I have chosen to work in a different way.
I want the viewer to experience the feeling of insecurity or threat.
The experience of the works can create a physical understanding of the ideas I want to reach out with.
Mona Hatoum Revisit appears on Magazine III 19 Feb – 15 October.
So Much I Want To Say will be shown on Acceleterator 19 Feb – 19 June.
