My Dad's Strip Club | Enjoy an evening with My Dad's Strip Club as they try to justify your existence, drawing a pre-arranged story to fit the words you are speaking.
Hair conditioning the dog, we salivate, the sick woman denies the real value of it all. As the Titanic sails by, the laughing mouths promise us bigger and better. Underneath scribbled out is the text. “Hello very happy that I can write you. Draw for me and we start acquaintance. I'm looking for serious relationship. Please come. Draw about yourself. I also draw, I'm waiting my stranger.”
My Dad's Strip Club celebrates dissent. Through drawing, performance and intervention they eloquently capture the connections between consumption and the world order.
Lottie Childs | We are witnessing an overwhelming migration of global populations to mega cities. This transition from one paradigm to another transforms our bodies, mentalities and foci in a short time. City cultures are powerfully conformist.From our starting point at Toynbee Studios, walk the streets of Spitalfields with us as we shift focus. Watching the sky, feeling the sensation of the breeze on skin, wandering in and out of shadows, moving like the animals we watch, the magic in the trees, the setting sun, night scented jasmine at dusk and then we watch the moon rise.
