Art features armpit hairs on deodorant, crusty toothpaste, mucky toothbrush holders
A new ‘Ick-xhibition’ photography show opens next week from the 15th January until the 21st January, in Hackney Downs, where visitors can view a series of scenes commissioned by bathroom product brand Life Supplies.
Shot by photographer Angèle Châtenet the 12-canvas gallery, titled ‘ICK’ unveils a series of unsightly bathroom scenes from the universally icky dried toothpaste in the sink, overflowing bathroom waste bin, the sticky soap gunk on the bottle of shower gel to the unappealing armpit hairs left on the deodorant.
Through a series of revealing visuals, the photography show will peel back the layers of our daily routines to reveal the oddly compelling and occasionally unsettling aspects of our bathroom dislikes.
