Chloe Wise's recent solo exhibition Cats not fighting is a horrible sound as well at Galerie Division explicitly explored Wise's perception of the relationship between the female form and food; desire and mortality. Working across media including oil painting, urethane sculpture, and video, Wise cleverly subverts traditional art historical and commercial iconography in order to explore the charged connection between women's bodies and culinary delicacies, positing that both simultaneously represent luxury and abundance, as well as inherent decay. Her painting, You're going to need a better rival, from which we have created her new limited edition print, equates commercial branding with carnal desire, as a slender hand invitingly cups a common can of tomato paste against a starkly desolate Magritte-esque atmosphere.
