Mat Collishaw presents his audience with a haunting vision of the world in ‘Sordid Earth’, a series of prints and installations that explore the natural binaries of beauty and grotesque. Simultaneously repulsive and exquisite, the images of diseased and depraved earth both lure and repel, as the viewer identifies the darker embedded ideas explored in Collishaw’s work.
