Exhibitions: , Art, Photography, Gallery

Mick Hucknall, Prince Harry, Vivienne Westwood, that annoying kid in Harry Potter and whatsherface from Girls Aloud. Yes, that's right, they're all gingers. Nowt wrong with that. It's just the way it is.

Just like any other feature, ginger hair can be beautiful and it can be horrible, but for some reason it always attracts more attention than people with black or brown hair. Who knows why? Not us, that's for sure.

Anyway, this month Idea Generation Gallery are exhibiting a series of photographic portraits of people with red hair. All the images have been taken by Jenny Wicks in order to examine different attitudes towards the recessive orange gene.

Proceeds from the project go towards the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
