StolenSpace is pleased to present 'Cold Turkey' , a group exhibition that delves into the theme of food indulgence following the festive season. Featuring artists Anna Barlow, Casey Gray, Coarse, D*Face, Daisy Tortuga, Haus of Lucy, Helena Wurzel, Kiama Sophia, Kinjo, Lucy Sparrow, Miss Bugs, Nicholas Bono Kennedy, Noah Verrier, Ron English, Takahiro Komuro, Thomas Pilnik and Zoe Moss, the exhibition humorously explores the abrupt transition from holiday feasting to restraint.
The exhibition captures the tension between celebration and overindulgence, focusing on the comical and sometimes sobering realisation of excess. Artists invite viewers to reflect on the culinary rituals that define the holiday season and the often immediate shift to moderation.
'Cold Turkey' presents works that bring humour and insight into the cycle of consumption. Ron English's art, renowned for its vibrant take on consumer culture, cleverly captures consumer-driven eating habits; Helena Wurzel highlights the quirks of post-holiday reality with the immediate shift to popular 'healthy' food choices; Daisy Tortuga’s sculptural works humorously put a spin on other popular dishes with surreal, anthropomorphic depictions of food items, inviting further reflection and engagement with our consumption habits.
