Untitled ®

Untitled ® is an exhibition of new work by Alun Rhys Jones. The show is an ongoing exploration into the role of branding and advertising within contemporary culture and its emphasis on celebrity, fame, youth and beauty.

The exhibition examines the language of advertising: models, scale, colour, layout, and composition are subverted to illuminate the alienation and emotional detachment underlying the glossy veneer of consumerism and the repetitive consumption of goods.

Seductive, transient perfections mask the contemporary melancholy and malaise of modern consumer society where aspirations are continually updated but never fulfilled.
