MILLY THOMPSON: My Body Temperature is Feeling Good

My Body Temperature is Feeling Good presents the work of British artist Milly Thompson (1964–2022). Part of the renowned artist group BANK, Milly went on to establish a solo practice as a prolific painter, sculptor, video artist and writer. This exhibition presents works from 2010 onwards, in which she irreverently lampooned the hegemonic force of luxury consumer culture on women and celebrated the middle-aged female body for its libidinal power. Across the exhibition a strongly rendered sense of the female gaze is established, privileging female desire, glamour, and a purposeful slipperiness of artistic voice and persona that constantly questions the stakes of making art.
