Amber-rose Hulme’s latest exhibition, Edited Reality, explores the notion that an objective sense of reality is inherently flawed. Drawing on the visual language of graffiti, her pastels on paper depict the layered, fading and deteriorating remnants of street art to capture a visual narrative of transient interactions.
Inspired by the blurred boundaries between public and private realms, Hulme uses the physical residue of street culture to represent the merging of personal and shared experiences. Her images reveal how individual perceptions and internal narratives intertwine with external influences, suggesting that reality itself is dependent upon observation. Each of us, she implies, edits our own reality, shaped by subjective bias.
