THE HAPPY HOUSE

About

Stuart Semple, provocative image-maker, social commentator and visual spokesperson, is bringing his first UK show for three years to Morton Metropolis. Happy House is an album of 11 large paintings underscored by Semple's signature use of text, each work a self-contained story that also relates to the other pieces on show. Lifting the lid on the state of Britain today, his work shouts loudly and fluently in the vernacular of a young media soaked generation, depicting a world that is absorbing and exciting, yet precariously underpinned by the hollow daily cycle of tabloids, Hollywood movies, and endless media intrusion.
