Tallulah Batley is a multidisciplinary artist from Cheshire. A Painting graduate from the University of Edinburgh, she uses sculpture, painting and printmaking to explore themes of pattern and decoration, domestic spaces, childhood and gender.

 

Often through the medium of dollhouses, Tallulah creates sets and worlds for imagined characters, brightly coloured and excessively ornamented.

 

Where every object is decorated and considered essential in the display of the ‘work’, “Pink Parlour” is both a rejection of the sterility of ‘white cube’ display and a worship of the seemingly insignificant set dressing of domestic spaces. No longer superficial, decoration is wielded as a tool for exploring identity, memory, gender and the ways in which we inhabit our personal worlds.

 

You are cordially invited to enter the “Pink Parlour” and stay as long as you please.
