About

Four Barratt Wham bars, stacked in bold repetition against a vivid red ground — Kelly-Anne Davitt renders these iconic sweet wrappers with an almost unsettling precision. The glossy folds, the explosive comic-book typography, the rockets and stars — every detail is lifted from memory and placed back into the world with fresh eyes. This isn't just nostalgia; it's a full-on visual punch to the gut.

Davitt's hyperrealist approach transforms the everyday into something worth stopping for. The deep cobalt blues of the wrappers crackle against the flat red background, creating a tension between the familiar and the monumental. By repeating the subject four times, she elevates a humble penny sweet into something closer to a pop art statement — part Warhol, part corner shop, entirely her own.

WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM is a conversation starter, a childhood flashback, and a genuinely bold piece of contemporary painting all at once. It's the kind of work that holds its own on any wall — and will make every visitor do a double-take.
