Deliverance is one of my favorite exhibitions ever, I came across Brittany on the internet a few years ago When I was in London last month, I walked all the way to Mamoth Gallery in the rain bc I thought it was showing,,, turns out this show was there in October 2022 not 2023 lol Anyways, I don’t even care. I love this show so much that I would walk that again happily bc the thought of getting to see it IRL was so epic, like how’d I’d imagine the final mile of a pilgrimage feeling Long winded press release excerpt for ur reading: “Remote from the cerebral desires of the vaniteux, the fetishist-as-artist pursues gratification not through passive, mimetic consumption, but through the creative act of automatic transfiguration, a process that sees the mundanities of everyday life – wearing a raincoat, spilling chocolate syrup or traipsing through a muddy field in woefully inadequate footwear – imbued with limitless erotic potential by the fetishist, and limitless poetic potential for artist Brittany Shepherd.”
