After the Storm: Mohammed Sami at Blenheim Palace

Explore After the Storm: Mohammed Sami at Blenheim Palace.

Renowned for his evocative and multi-layered paintings, Sami weaves together belated memories shaped by his formative years, and subsequent personal history. Featuring all new work inspired by the history and collections at Blenheim Palace, Sami’s paintings feature landscapes, interiors and more abstracted scenes, whilst always being devoid of the human figure. They blur the line between reality and artifice, conjuring the disquieting sensation of both presence and absence. 

The exhibition catalogue includes exclusive installation photography, a conversation between Mohammed Sami and artist Rachel Whiteread, and a catalogue essay by Polly Staple (Director of Collection, Tate).
