Seems the Ryoji Ikeda exhibition opening at Ikon Eastside tonight isn’t the only event tonight – true to form, the Digbeth galleries are joining forces and VIVID will have live performance art from 6pm tonight until sunrise tomorrow:
Jordan McKenzie will repeatedly strike matches across the surface of the gallery wall. The residual red marks will create a drawing the duration of which will be the length of time between sunset and sunrise. The drawing and the discarded matches will be left in the space following the performance. It will be a poetic and poignant attempt to keep moments of light burning into the hours of darkness.
You can go along this evening to watch in person or watch the live stream in the box above.
