Jennet Thomas' solo show at Matts Gallery in London opens 14 April and runs through to 6 June 2010.
It's a Pick of the Week in the Guardian this week.
"A comicbook hero-cum-evangelist named the Purple Preacher, blessed with the power of persuasion, works some unusual seduction techniques in Jennet Thomas's debut film installation at Matt's Gallery. Rubber Adam and Eve dolls, garage gigs and an outing to a model village are all part of his charm offensive. This blend of dream logic, bizarre shaggy-dog-story repetitions and anarchic fizz is typical territory for the London-based artist who co-founded the pioneering Exploding Cinema Collective in the early 90s. Her interests are grounded in regular human foibles and the everyday pitfalls of belief systems, so as much as a wild plunge into the absurd, Thomas shows just how bizarre ordinary life can be." Skye Sherwin, The Guardian Guide
