Performances | You Are Here Too: Tay Haggarty and Ari Angkasa
Event description
The Institute of Modern Art's exhibition You Are Here Too is activated with an evening of performance.
Tay Haggarty is a Magandjin (Brisbane) based artist making at the intersections of performance, video, and sculpture. Their practice is interested in queer abstraction and explores how reductive forms can be used as an open field to reflect upon personal and shared queer experience. The sculptural materials or props used are frequently industrial or ready-made and their work is often collaborative, minimal and site specific. During performance they often use angle grinding stunts to pay homage to the handy leather bound butches who came before them.
Ari Angkasa is an artist and arts worker operating under a reconfiguring of the Institutional Critique ‘genre’ of art-making and history. Ari has worked as producer for Hyphenated Projects, RISING Festival, and held exhibitions at Seventh Gallery, Blindside, along with upcoming works at Gertrude Glasshouse and West Space.
