Gori Mora : Burning Desires
Sweet exhibition at Unit of new work by Gori Mora exploring “safe spaces” for queer people. I think I was meant to be slightly shocked but I just thought they were sweet as they had a cartoon like quality. I couldn’t help but think it was Tom of Finland meets Beryl Cook and incidentally I’m annoyed with myself for missing the recent exhibition which did bring those two together. I was intrigued to find they are oil paint on Perspex which I’d not come across before. It gave a very shiny finish to them which added to the campness but made them hard to photograph.
