Emily Hartley-Skudder, Rinse & Repeat
The title of the show echoes a mantra found on the backs of shampoo bottles, while also acting as a description of something formulaic and tiresomely predictable. For this exhibition, Emily has painted a series of fourteen small, single-object portraits, many of which are caught mid-splash, being doused in clear and colourful liquids. Their colours conjure memories of pastel icing on children's animal biscuits, in combination with the crystallized droplets of flash photography in product advertising.
