Winnie Hall - Elvis Memento","description":"\u003cp\u003e2026\u003cbr\u003eOil primed linen, mdf, painted postcard, Elvis scrapbook clipping with tape, 4 leaf clover, fabric leaf, ribbon, staples \u003cbr\u003e17 x 15 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinnie Hall’s practice explores the ways we contextualise and interpret the world around us. Drawing from an ever-expanding archive of collected objects — badges, postcards, souvenirs, fan memorabilia, fake cigarettes, novelty items, and found ephemera — her work examines the strange emotional and psychological charge carried by everyday things. These objects exist in deliberate opposition to the increasingly curated and homogenised aesthetics of contemporary life, offering a world of practical jokes, awkward encounters, bus interiors, and low-fi cultural residue instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCentral to Hall’s practice is the moment of perceptual disruption: the uncomfortable realisation that a jar of nuts is not in fact a jar of nuts, or that a pile of sick is actually a carefully fabricated silicone replica. By manipulating recognition and expectation, Hall slows the speed of interpretation and destabilises the viewer’s assumptions. Humour, discomfort, nostalgia, and absurdity coexist in works that challenge ideas of authenticity, taste, and value, while revealing the emotional textures embedded within overlooked forms of material culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHall is currently completing the Turps Studio Programme (2024–2026) following the Conditions Studio Programme (2020–2022).
