Bedroom Fantasies Group Show

Bedroom Fantasies Groups Show - TAP GalleryOPENING NIGHT TUESDAY 20TH FEBRUARY AT 6 PM.

Marina Kawabe;   Maya Dabbs;  Emily Thwaites.

 

”Addressing ‘’cute’’ as a weapon of mass seduction, it may solicit but it does not let itself be seduced. ‘’Bedroom fantasies’’ is derived from the foundational experience of girlhood, when one is isolated in their room and dreams of the world outside. Each artist extends the range of what is acceptable subject-matter to provoke introspection, drawing on themes that are embarrassing and uncomfortable, expressed through multimedia forms.  Novel phrases such as cute, whimsical, cosy and erotic do not weaken the intensity of the works but instead amplify them. ”
