In addition to delivering a presentation on at the Symposium on 10th June, on 11th June I’ll have some new work available for viewing at the Random String microFestival.
The Random String microFestival is an exciting day exploring technology and art.
Digital artworks, interactive installations, hands-on arts activities and workshops will fill the City Arcade, including the Shop Front Theatre, Artspace’s City Arcadia and in the recently opened FabLab Coventry.
Last Day
For the microFetsival I will produce a new vinyl installation work called Last Day.
Last Day is a piece that highlights the fragility of financial markets and the unpredictable nature of consumer habits, market forces and trends. The effects of these have been far reaching, seeing once thriving retail parks home to small businesses and former retail giants rendered as ghost towns of empty units. The choice of imagery shows that nothing is too big to fail.
The piece will be installed in the window of Unit 22 at the City Arcade.
Last Day workshop
To accompany the installation, during the mircoFestival you will be invited to create your own shop window honouring our favourite defunct brands!
The microFestival takes place 11th June 11:00 – 16:00 at the City Arcade in Coventry and is completely free
