‘Banner’s work is a subtle and engaging reading of the relationship between culture, the body and language, with some accessible humour and wit thrown in.’

Her new show, The Bastard Word, goes further into the forms of language and the language of forms, using fighter planes and the classic human nude as starting points to explore themes that have occupied her over the years: the seductive power of the image over the word in pop culture, the gap between language and object, the iconography of the military and the deployment of sexuality.

The Bastard Word, curated by The Power Plant Director, Gregory Burke, is an exhibition of new and recent work that brings together a range of sculptures, installations, drawings, and a selection of newer pieces that are among her most ambitious to date. Banner investigates the limits and possibilities of written language, drawing on source material from military hardware and films to pornography and the tradition of the nude.
