- catalog abstract ""Mona Hatoum was born in Beirut in 1952, to Palestinian parents. In 1975 she settled in London after civil war broke out in Lebanon while she was on a visit to Britain. She first became known in the early 1980s for a series of performance and video pieces which focused with great intensity on the body. Since the beginning of the 1990s her work has shifted towards installation and sculpture." "For the inaugural exhibition in the Duveen Galleries at Tate Britain, Mona Hatoum has created three new works. Dramatic in scale, Mouli-Julienne (x 21), Continental Drift and Homebound make familiar objects seem foreign, rendering them beautiful yet malevolent. Through the juxtaposition of opposites such as beauty and horror, Hatoum aims to engage the viewer in conflicting emotions of desire and revulsion, fear and fascination. In doing so she creates what Edward W. Said describes in his essay as a 'logic of irreconcilables'."--Jacket.".
