Rachel Megawatt & Others @ Herrick Gallery

Love is an exhibition of light, love, sex and flowers with exquisite photographs, enticing neons and intimate oils by Rachel Megawhat, Illuminati Neon and Geraldine Swayne.
“there are in the end three things that last: faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is Love.” Corinthians 13:13
Rachel Megawhat’s flower pictures are described by the artist as being “deeply shallow”. Very deliberately apolitical, these are contemplative works aiming to find objective beauty and eternal truths as a counterpoint to our super-fast information culture, votive images that are both sacred and profane. The images are all made in-camera with minimal post-processing, marking a return to a pre-digital style of photography. All images were taken with Fujifilm-X series cameras. The printing process, chromaluxe, is the most exquisite archival process available in the world today.  Dye-sublimated onto an aluminium surface these scratch, fire and fade resistant prints will last for generations – the antithesis of disposable pixels.
Illuminati Neon create beautiful, desirable art from their Shepherds Bush studios.
