O Magic Power of Bleakness (Five screens)

O’ Magic Power of Bleakness takes you through the doors of Tate Britain’s galleries into the underside of a motorway flyover – more specifically, the M53 Eastham Rake Bridge near the artist’s childhood home. Leckey brings the audience into a replica of the concrete space frequented by children and teenagers with nowhere to go, including the young Leckey himself.
