Cross Lane Projects is delighted to announce Formula + Fetish a new solo exhibition by Mark Woods, opening Saturday 10 May 2025.
For over three decades, Mark Woods (born 1961 in Surrey, UK) has produced elaborate artefacts that blur the boundaries between jewellery, fine art, fetish objects and items from cabinets of curiosities.
Unnerving and evocative, the viewer is confronted with dramatic beauty, sophisticated craftsmanship and an awakening of unexpected emotions. Woods’ works invite you to leave your comfort zone and question human desires.
Formula + Fetish features aspects of Woods ever-expanding practice: Objects – luxurious objects of desire and contemporary art fetishes; Jewellery – the origins of the artist’s skills in object making; Photographs – creative images; and Self-Portraits – a performance with the camera lens.
