Take Me Somewhere | Daniel Kok and Luke George - Still Lives

Part of Take Me Somewhere Festival, 15 to 26 October 

Still Lives is a performance-installation series that captures (with ropes) significant moments or movement in relation to specific cultural contexts. Each edition of Still Lives is a durational, site-responsive and context-specific process of binding cultural objects in their place. This allows new conversations to emerge and unveils narratives about local history, political tensions, social connections and personal attachments.

The artists are currently developing the Glasgow-specific work using local professional wrestlers.

Access:

This performance is highly visual with little spoken text and Closed Captions in English.
