PORK


Pork exhibition took place in Bermondsey Space on the 19th of August of 2011.The exhibition was an idea of Nadia Berri and the participating artists were Nadia Berri, Terry Dynes, Ben Faga, Jayne Lloyd, Cristina Pedrera, Lucia Rivero and myself.
The title "PORK" was chosen randomly and indicates the spirit of the show. PORK was an antidote to themed exhibitions and the ego of the curator.

GENERAL VIEW OF THE SHOW


The participating artists had 3 days to work in the space.
-->Some of us brought pre-conceived elements, others not and we collectively played and bounced ideas off each other. This made -in our opinion- a fresh and unpredictable show, which was fine-tuned to give it balance and coherence. No-one was sure what the others will come up with.
