In performance where every detail is combed for meaning, it’s interesting to observe expression outside the performing arena. Is it costume that’s sported? Alternative modes of fashion, hair sculpture, body modification. Life and art are interchangeable; artists express at pedestrian level too.
Bizarrely, there is still proliferation of black. It throws bright blue sweat-shirts, red retro-cut coats, yellow sling bags into relief. Is it easy to make a bold statement here? Maybe it’s easier because you are among friends, friendly artists. The live art community support anyone who is on the edge, even if you are on the edge of the fashion precipice!
Installations happen throughout the building:
* Black T-shirt impregnated with hundreds of safety-pins charting the spine
* Ziranek maintains her place as British eccentric and long serving pink performance artist, with baubles and bangles galore
* Emerald green shoes clip past (perhaps this is the way to change perspective on the world? I wanted to lie on the floor, watch their progress)
Some expressive outfits may have been obscured by the necessity to wrap up warm. Even I made provision for the weather, having skipped around in my mini-dress yesterday, I wore hat throughout Sat.
