Dumb Show
Poet, sound artist and light manipulator pick at the incomplete meanings of modern life
Thursday 9 September 2010
|
The Coffee House, Aberdeen [Map]
Admission by donation
Building on last year's Nightmare show the boys have developed their sound and poetry performance as well as asking fellow artist Anton Beaver to do a dedicated light performance to augment the show.
The work itself explores the strangeness of modern life — touching upon themes such as online dating, mummification, identity and tattoos. It is dark, humorous and questioning.
