EXOTICA
A multimedia exhibition organised and co-curated by MIAL artist Imogen Parry. The exhibition is on for one-night-only: 18.30 – 12 midnight at the Arch 402 Gallery, right next to Hoxton Station.
‘Exotica’ is a multimedia exhibition that examines tropical sublimity and its decay as a result of human consumption and development.
Common components associated with paradisiacal and exotic imagery will be explored alongside darker elements that we associate with modern society.
- A Still From A Film – Sophie Rodgers
- Dancing Naked Under Palm Trees – Isabella Fellas
Aiming to combine music and visual art for one night only, visitors will be immersed in a party-like atmosphere. The show will take a playful angle on the symbolism of escapist ideals through a combination of up-and-coming London talent, and established references to popular culture.

Paradiso – Imogen Parry
Inspired by the artists’ personal experiences as well as the shared yearning of urban citizens for a slice of tropical beauty and the hedonistic possibilities it brings, Exotica aims to create an ambience of idyllic decadence with a dark and unsettling heartbeat.
- Dream Lilo Tan – Imogen Parry
- Celestial Party – Paris Ackrill
Featuring works by MIAL artist Imogen Parry, video artists Roger Spy & Sophie Rogers, photographers Paris Ackrill & Isabella Fellas, ‘Most Wanted Creative Talent 2015/16’ Johanna Cree Brown and Wimbledon Painting graduate Jonny Wheatley (and more), the show is a celebration and coming together of London’s current young creative talent.
