About
Odox warmly invites you to the launch of SPLITS, a solo show by Bex Ilsley. Bex's work explores the spaces between the reality and virtuality and between the ‘self’ and the ‘other’. Bex looks at online trends and oddities and seeks to parody them as a form of critique. Her work spans video, photography, performance, VR, installation and sculpture.
SPLITS is a broad response to the pervasive pathologisation of specific forms of behaviour and thought. The artist aims to depict and dissect her experiences within community mental health services following a personality disorder diagnosis in 2018. The works themselves are the product of an artistic exploration of what it means to experience an ‘unstable sense of self’ – at both a personal and universal level - in the age of Instagram-reality and the ‘Good Vibes Only’ cult.
