Jesse Pollock: The Pleasure Garden

Selfridges, London

Commission

2021 - 2021

Commissioned by Selfridges
Programmed and produced by Bold Tendencies

5 September – 17 October 2021
Selfridges, London

Inspired by his commission for Bold Tendencies in 2021, The Granary, Jesse Pollock was commissioned by Selfridges to respond to their programme theme, 'The Pleasure Garden', with a new widow display on Duke Street, London. The commission featured a steel mosaic of candy orange panels, illustrated with odes to Jesse's own time spent living in rural Kent, as well as dark and wilting bronze flowers, a chrome hoofed table and horse shoes, surrounded by black PVC fabric. The work interprets The Pleasure Garden as a longstanding site of nonconformism, reflecting on the ways that the countryside continues to be used as a site for sensuality, deviance and pleasure-seeking.
