What have you got if you haven't got love?" (Eartha Kitt, Mink Schmink)
Just like a timeless tune, or a legendary French perfume, this group exhibition has top notes of glamour, style and bling, mid notes of aspiration, beauty and mortality and lingering just a little longer than is comfortable are base notes of vanity, envy and greed.
Mink Schmink oscillates between high and low culture and draws in the gold-digging, superficial, fake, embroidered, wishful, delusional and longing worlds that fills our emotional voids.
This show is a colourful blast for all the senses, with sculpture, painting, photography, print and performance from Emma Barrow, Deni Francis, Phil Illingworth, Denise Mahon, Eleanor Moulsdale, Starchild, Boa Swindler, David Wightman, Chiara Williams and Irlanda Zantone.
The exhibition runs from 17th Jan to 15th Feb 2009

Love, love, love your work. Why are so many people afraid to be glorious, and what is over the top? What is the top? Beautiful work.
