Biography

Rachel Maclean lives and works in Glasgow, Maclean started experimenting with green-screen technology, which now characterises her practice, while she was studying her BA in Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of art (2009). Her films combine a variety of references to popular culture, and of genres such as children's television programmes, horror movies, British comedy, video games, reality TV and YouTube videos. Maclean's work is defined by a constant back and forth between the seductive and the unsettling, revealing behind her candy-coloured, fantastical fictions a much darker reality.
