Maisie Cousins
Walking Back to Happiness series, 2023
Maisie Cousins explores themes of power, femininity and indulgence, often bringing together visceral elements such as beauty and revulsion into a single image where these extremes coalesce.
She turns to AI to help her rediscover lost childhood memories after family videos of visits to Blobbyland theme park with her Grandad were accidentally destroyed. Collaging together images found with the help of AI, Maisie Cousins’ photographs are both uncanny and touchingly nostalgic – glimmers of times which continue to sustain her. Alongside her photography, we find her sculptures whose physical presence further recreate Blobbyland for us.
Recent exhibitions include Beyond Fashion, Saatchi Gallery (2024); Walking back to happiness, TJ Boulting (2023); Digital Iridescence, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, USA (2023); and Paris Photo (2021).
