On the 30th of August 2024, Graceland London’s inaugural show opened to the public, displaying a new body of original artworks. The exhibition title, Spotlight on the Shadows, reflects Graceland London’s interest in the natural duality of life and the idea of ‘sonder’, the realisation that everyone you see has a life as full and complex as your own.

Fascinated by the Old Masters, the artist’s vast knowledge of Art History significantly shapes her creative oeuvre. Symbolism is a cornerstone of Graceland London’s artistry, manifesting in objects and characters laden with profound culture significance while contrasting with her bright use of colour and playful treatment of form.

Through the candy colours aesthetic, that takes inspiration from animation, she captures sinister worlds and explores consumption and mental health themes. Graceland London's work presents images of decadence and vice in the contemporary world; what she describes as the ‘darker side of the human ego’.

The illustrated book is a celebratory publication of Graceland London's inaugural exhibition, showcasing the full scope of her vibrant, nuanced, dark and playful sensibility. Explore the alternative reality that Graceland London created with the use of symbols and iconography.
