Scarlett Carlos Clarke (born 1992) is a British photographer and artist based in London.
[1] Her debut solo exhibition The Smell of Calpol on a Warm Summer's Night, was at Cob Gallery in July 2021.
[2] Combining photography, sculpture and video, the exhibition was said by Hannah Abel-Hirsch in The British Journal of Photography to "engender a visceral feeling tied to the experience of domesticity.
"[3] Molly Cranston wrote in The Editorial Magazine that "The images themselves are lush and painterly, Clarke handles dramatic chiaroscuro like a renaissance painter, imbuing her photos with a sense of history and cinema, but the buzz-blue tones and household props (Daz detergent, Irn-Bru, Pampers) plant her subjects resolutely in contemporary Britain.
"[4] Nick Waplington has compared them to the works of painters Edward Hopper and Grant Wood.
