Sara Pope

Jealous North

21 Jun 2017 — 16 Jul 2017

Jealous is delighted to welcome Sara Pope for a solo exhibition. #Gorgeous will feature the artists’ trademark seductive lips through a wide range of media including brand new neon light works, original pieces and new limited edition prints, made at Jealous Print Studio. The collaboration will provide an interactive and unique environment.

Sara’s new body of work to be featured in the exhibition will aim to seduce. Lips and mouths in emotive poses are painted to a polished perfection: a version of reality, more perfect than real.
"We are surrounded by a visual stream of persuasion, through advertising, Instagram and social media, we experience repeated appeals to our unconscious desires. The more seductive the image, the greater the response. This has led to the rise of image perfectionism, where the boundaries between what’s real and what is created are becoming ever more blurred. Through the perspective of many years’ experience working in fashion and magazines, I explore this theme."
