Louise Orwin

PRETTY UGLY

Pretty Ugly
6-10 August 4.15pm
Drill Hall Studio

This show is about you rating me based solely on my looks…

It is also about a recent worldwide trend of teenage girls posting videos on YouTube asking viewers to rate their looks. Pretty Ugly follows my trail of research into how Generation YouTube uses the ever widening field of social networking to reach others. There is a live YouTube experiment, some Britney, a tender and inappropriate love story, and some of my childhood toys. It is about our obsessions, and pretensions, and teenage girls – but don’t let that put you off. It is about you and me and the internet.

Pretty Ugly feels genuinely urgent and deeply necessary. It demands, and deserves, to be seen.
***** Exeunt

A timely, powerful performance from Louise Orwin – very impressive stuff.

    Over the course of 2024 Out of the Blue will continue to offer opportunities for artists and members of the community to learn, participate and earn income.

    We use the space we have developed in 6 buildings in Edinburgh for studios, workshops, classes, projects, exhibitions, social enterprises, events, clubs, music making, markets, a cafe and more.

    Our all year round activity helps create the culture of the city, supporting the local economy and having positive social impact for the thousands of individuals and organisations we work with.

    We would humbly accept a financial donation, however small, in support of our work.
