Matilda Temperley The Ugly Cards.

The Vivid Angel is part of the playing card set of the Ugly Card set.

In September Cock ‘n’ Bull Gallery launches Matilda Temperley’s Human Zoo: The UGLY Cards. Matilda is known for her stylised portraiture of marginalised societies and the Human Zoo is an on-going project referencing human zoos throughout history, from the ethnographic displays of the 1500’s to modern day freak shows.

The UGLY cards showcase the individuality of 56 models represented by the agency UGLY, from sumo wrestlers to midgets. A limited edition pack of playing cards will be released for the exhibition.
