鈥楩or me, pursuing art is far more than a career choice; it鈥檚 a fundamental part of my identity. Artists uniquely mirror their times, and in my work I want to illuminate how, from birth, society shapes our reality. I try to make something visual that bridges tradition and modernity, highlighting the dark aspects of our experience to emphasise the importance of introducing balance for life to be meaningful. I want to immerse the viewer in the worlds I create, revealing new insights with each viewing.鈥
Graceland London
Drawing on her knowledge of art history and fascination with symbolism, Graceland London's work presents images of decadence and vice in the contemporary world; what she describes as the ‘darker side of the human ego’. Through playful candy colours and an aesthetic that takes inspiration from cartoons, she captures sinister worlds and explores consumption and mental health themes. Her bright use of colour and playful treatment of form is associated with optimism, yet in contrast her subject matter evokes a cynical tone.
