The exhibition’s location, a terrifying virtual motel complete with police tape and bloody walls (available through the
Maddox Gallery website till the 20th of November), is the perfect setting for Graceland’s work; there are paintings that reference the crushing terror of the Covid-19 pandemic, paintings that poke fun at consumerism, paintings that question the very future of Earth itself – and they are all painted in Graceland’s provocative style, melding pops of colour with surreal images and a sprinkle of darkness. Inspired by horror movies, classical art, occultism and everything in between, if you dare to journey through the doorway of the Graceland Motel to take a look, you’re sure to be in for a wonderfully horrifying time.
