Here, the Gold Ones flatter
Bonington Gallery
EXHIBITION: 26 March-21 May 2022
PREVIEW: Friday 25 March, 5-8pm
PERFORMANCE: Saturday 7 May, 10-4pm

It is happening again.
Here, the Gold Ones were.
We’ve heard that before.
But this time it was flatter.

So, as we were saying.
It’s an original story.
No, this is an origin story.
Everyone already knows this.

Everywhen, here and there.
This is what we always said.
Mis-shaped and not in proportion.
As though seen for the first time.

Digital Residency
IMT Gallery
2022

Across 2022 we're part of the IMT Digital Residency with Orphan Drift, Reece Griffiths & Ellie Towers, Bijan Moosavi, I. Nakhla, Frankie Roberts, and Rieko Whitfield.

If you want to delve behind-the-scenes and experience the processes involved in the artistic practice of seven artists/artist collectives, check out IMT Gallery to receive monthly 'art releases'.

The residency is coalescing around key threads, built in collaboration with the resident artists and narrated by IMT, including embodiment, fictioning, site-specificity and psycho-geography, and will develop a range of online and physical events across the year.

A taste for the old school is now settling in under your skin and you stick on a video, a trailer invites you to follow the Gold Ones. Reactor’s alternative histories bring new mythologies and approaches to living, you look around your apartment imagining interior decor, perhaps even a kitchen refit. Then a very self-assured voice offers you the chance to boost your luck.

What’s happening in the Cosmic Care Home today?

Tune into the CCH 24hr TV transmission. Scrolling through the numerous cameras in the Home, the Helping Hands choose what you can see, around the clock. These cycles of slow-rest, care, break-fast, and well … what you can see now, is that time for the Gold Ones travels differently.

Remote viewing provides access to the Gold Ones’ Dummies.

What can be seen here is an increasingly incessant transmission from within the Cosmic Care Home. As the Gold Ones move through cycles of activity – rest, care, affirmation, exercise, games, and treatment – we get to know each of them, their relations and woo-woo beliefs.
