The Temptation Of...
The Temptation Of / The Nasty Book
The Second Act, London
Paradise Works, Salford
Exhibition:
In ‘The Temptation of...’ two artists explore the complexities between sexuality, desire, and the impact of societal norms on personal identity. Lydia McCaig elicits the tension she experiences, caught between her own sense of a woman’s sexuality and the male gaze; and her upbringing within the Church. A place where religious teachings on sex foster a deep-seated conflict between moral restraint and youthful curiosity. This conflict manifests in her work through the use of religious iconography and the subversive reveal of clandestine sexuality seen in sacred imagery.
