Retouched beauty seems to be as certain as the presence of a busty blonde in a Ralph magazine these days, and "Dollface", a series of photographic work by Hannah Scott-Stevenson is an exploration of this plastic and idealistic beauty. Retouched images of girly girls, inspiration drawn from fairy tales, and influence from photographers such as Cindy Sherman, Erwin Olaf, Deborah Paauwe create a whimsical yet eerie atmosphere. The exhibition continues until June 21. – KB
