Taus Makhacheva: Hold Your Horses at The Tetley

With Super Taus, Superhero Sighting Society and The Unbound Hold Your Horses speaks to the traditions of history-making and the experience of everyday life. Makhacheva’s position isn’t nostalgic; instead she creates stories and even superheroes through a playful process of mixing, borrowing and assimilation. Often drawing from daily life in Dagestan and the Caucasus region of Russia, Makhacheva reflects on the day-to-day rituals, celebrations and instances of everyday heroism with a playful and humorous tone. Taus Makhacheva: Hold Your Horses at The Tetley, 7 February – 10 May 2020. The exhibition is presented in partnership with Liverpool Biennial and supported with National Lottery funding through Arts Council England’s Strategic Touring fund. With thanks to narrative projects, London. Video Jules Lister. Website: Facebook: Twitter: Instagram:
