Katy Hessel interviews Tate Britain curator, Aïcha Mehrez, on painter Lisa Brice

10 February 2021

Katy Hessel and curator Aïcha Mehrez discuss the exhibition Art Now: Lisa Brice (26 April - 27 August 2018) at Tate Britain as well as Brice's South African heritage and ties to Trinidad through the colour blue and its many different meanings.

Hessel and Mehrez also talk about the artist's ability to lure viewers into these private worlds disguised under a thin sheet or curtain, to gaze on these incredibly seductive and surreal women in their private and domestic spaces.
