Disco Inferno: Neighbourhood Breakfast & Exhibition Tour
Gasworks155 Vauxhall Street
Thu 19 Nov · 08:30 · Free
About this event
Join us for coffee, tea and pastries from 8:30am, followed by a tour of Paloma Contreras Lomas’ exhibition Disco Inferno at 9:30am with Gasworks’ Curator Rosa Tyhurst. Moving between mediums, Paloma’s work explores representations of her home country, examining how its historic and contemporary violence's have been shaped through popular culture and media narratives. Flitting between folklore, literature, children’s comics and her own personal histories, she employs grotesque, subculture aesthetics to critique patriarchal systems and their intersections with capital. This event is free to attend, but booking is recommended via Eventbrite . The tour will take place at Gasworks, temporary seating provided on request. -- The Lead Supporter for Paloma Contreras Lomas's exhibition is Prue MacLeod. The Headline Supporter is Catherine Petitgas, with additional support from Fundación Ama Amoedo. The exhibition is made possible with thanks to Pequod Co. Gasworks’ Exhibitions programme is supported by public funding from Arts Council England.
