‘HER KIND’ – HEIDI YARDLEY ‘Her Kind’ Solo Exhibition 31.08.11 to 24.09.11 Her Kind explores 19th century Spiritualism and its influence on the mystical renaissance of the 1960’s. Yardley’s small monochromatic paintings are reminiscent of the earliest forms of photography and its reproduction in postcard format. Suggestions of paranormal activity refer to the Spirit photography invented by William Mumler in 1860 where unexpected lights and apparitions of presumed ghosts sit alongside the living sitters. However, rather than appearing in Victorian costume Yardley’s figures resemble the free living characters of the 1960’s; the hippies, beats, nudists and New Agers. The paintings draw on print material and cinema of the 1960’s occult revival exemplified in the films of Kenneth Anger and Roman Polanski. Figures and scenes emerge luminous out of the inky sepia coloured oil paint paying homage to the paintings and etchings of the Symbolists such as Eugene Carriere and Fransisco Goya.
