Specimen - with Atomic Art
Site-specific Atomic Art group installation work.
Enter the circular curtain. The artists eyes stare down on a path around a raised dias of government-floor-reminiscent lino with an office chair. Above, Donna Free ceramic angelic/demonic figures hover.
The circle leads you to two booths, with music and sounds.
One is bright, with cacophonous sounds of war, a vintage hospital cabinet and some odd-looking instruments.
The other is dark, with strange textures of rubber and fur and large buttons - Teenage Russian Spy plays when you press one.
Big Brother or unemployment queue PTSD? Hot war, cold war, nuclear fear and fake fur.
