Talk
Art in the A.M. with Yummertime
19 Oct 2018
Town Square
Belfast, United Kingdom
11am-4pm, Tuesday-Sunday
Free
The Yummertime exhibition – featuring photography, video, fashion, and more – explores how the blog has captured a zeitgeist, raising key issues around the power and influence of social media in contemporary society.
“Yummertime is a source of inspiration for the boys and girls out there who refuse to accept rules and live a boring life. From fashion and food to beauty and travel, we hope we can encourage everyone and anyone to live their good life (and eat a little more pizza!).”
The Naughton Gallery presents a special collaborative project with Yummertime, a San Francisco-based lifestyle and photography blog co-founded by Brock Williams and Chris Lin. Initially developed by Williams and Lin to document their life together in San Francisco, Yummertime has since exploded into a social media powerhouse, with a huge following across platforms including Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and Pinterest.
This exhibition primarily focuses on Yummertime’s video and photography projects, exploring how the blog has captured a zeitgeist, raising key issues around the power and influence of social media in contemporary society.
