I am extremely pleased and proud to announce that my Performative Installation, The Smoke House is part of the SPBH Project Space at the Tate Modern for OffPrint London 2015. The piece will be performed in the Turbine Hall on Sunday 24th May 4-5pm!
"In a ritualistic response to the fire and flood at Gibson's studio, the
artist reclaims her experience in this citation of the performative
installation, The Smoke House.
Physically creating a space whereby controlled levels of smoke
bellow into a polycarbonate glasshouse and where books dangle from strings
inside.
This performance visualises the sensorial elements, allowing the
viewer to witness what Gibson faced on that evening. Offering a cathartically
ordered and shared experience that was absent at the time. Through the visual
pleasure of looking, suggestions around our human intrigue towards trauma come
into question as we wait, watch and wonder."
More can be found here; and with a fantastic programme of events, it is surely a weekend not to miss!
