Rachel Maclean is a Glasgow-based multi-media artist who creates artificial visions using green-screen technology. Within her fantastical settings Maclean parodies fairy tales, children’s television programmes, beauty product advertising, internet videos, and pop culture playing all the extravagantly costumed characters herself. At once seductive and nightmarish, glossy and grotesque, her films destabilise power dynamics and consumer desires.
In partnership with HOME, University of Salford Art Collection, Artpace, Zabludowicz Collection, Frieze Film and Channel 4 Random Acts.
Supported by Mr Nelson Woo, with additional support from Zabludowicz Collection.
