Paul Stolper Gallery, London: Neon/Light exhibition

Think of neon sculpture and Tracey Emin's punchy yet sentimental works from her I promise to love you collection spring to mind. Pastel coloured light tubes, moulded to ape the artist's handwriting, spell out passions, love declarations, disappointments and fears: her emotions illuminated for all to see.

But Emin is not the only contemporary artist using the medium to poignant effect: Cerith Wyn Evans, Damien Hirst and Brian Eno sculpt using this less traditional medium, too. A new exhibition at Soho's Paul Stolper Gallery explores the use of light sculptures as a tool for text, image and bold, vibrant colour. The raw, yet seductive works on display appease the senses, but it's clear that more sinister messages often lurk beneath the surface.

Highlights in Neon/Light exhibition include Peter Saville's Mum and Dad, 2012, and Hirst's neon sign reading Schizophrenogenesis, 2014. Situated at the entrance of the gallery, Hirst's vivid sign lures passers by into the glowing space. Once inside, the hand written neon signs, love notes, macabre symbols of death reveal the subversive and often silent power of light as artistic medium.

Showcasing the timeless allure of neon, this exhibition is Instagram heaven. Make sure to swing by and soak it all in.
