RINSE MY SOUL

SOLO SHOW

RHODES CONTEMPORARY , LONDON

JUNE 2024

In ‘Rinse My Soul’,  Hamer invites the viewer into contemplative dreamscapes where water is omnipresent, not just as a physical element, but as a symbol of cleansing and introspection. Her signature use of female figures, depicted with closed eyes and often in solitary contexts, highlight themes of inner reflection and psychological solitude. These figures, emblematic of the human soul, are portrayed with a vulnerability that is both raw and serene, standing against backdrops bursting with saturated colours that suggest not loneliness, but a chosen solitude reminiscent of a return to Eden.

The exhibition not only showcases Hamer's unique blend of mythology and personal narrative but also challenges the audience to see water as a conduit for personal and collective metamorphosis. Her work, rich in symbolic layering, encourages a dialogue between the viewer's inner experiences and the universal stories captured in her canvases.

‘Rinse My Soul’ promises an immersive experience where visitors can expect to be drawn into a world where myth, memory, and the motif of renewal coalesce, offering a refreshing perspective on the cycles of life and rebirth that resonate across cultures and epochs.
