Ishmael Randall-Weeks

Spatial reconstruction through repetition and accumulation

Wood, metal and architectural fragments

Industrial structures reorganised through rhythm and balance

Overview

Ishmael Randall-Weeks (b. 1976, Cusco, Peru) is an artist whose practice examines processes of construction, displacement and transformation through material and spatial systems.

Working across sculpture, installation and architectural intervention, he draws from vernacular building methods, industrial materials and urban structures. His practice reconfigures these elements through repetition, fragmentation and modular arrangement.

Randall-Weeks has exhibited internationally, including presentations at the Venice Biennale; Museo de Arte de Lima (MALI), Lima; and institutions and galleries across Latin America, Europe and the United States.
