LYDIA BLAKELEY – HOSPITALITY

Posted on 2020-02-03

Hospitality, is a solo exhibition of new paintings by Lydia Blakeley, all of which present scenes from horse races in Great Britain. They depict the characters one might see at these events including the security guards and sniffer dogs who are stationed at the entrance; waiters in the hospitality tent; and tipsy patrons, some of whom have passed out. As a group, the paintings are a patchwork of scenes at the races with the characters captured in tabloid moments of enjoyment, distraction and oblivion.

Opposite – Creasing, 2019

Exhibition runs through to February 8th, 2020
