Blancmange

Elliott Flanagan invites you to eat yourself to death. It is the night before tough new laws from the Convention for Climate Protection and Environmental Recovery come into force. In the morning, the start of meat rationing. Responsible consumption and production will be introduced. The mixed grill will be outlawed, an illegal Sunday roast will carry a fixed penalty fine and a SWAT Team will descend on any BBQ without a permit. In this gastronomic climax, Flanagan studies how in the shadow of an impending climate and nature emergency, what we eat has become a moral question. Our public and private habits, traditions and rituals towards food and drink are intensified during this one last party of overflowing plates, spilt glasses, swollen bellies and crumbs in your lap.

No Sweeter Taste On My Tongue, Nor Bitter Taste On My Lips

Lydia McCaig is a working-class artist from Blackburn, her work interrogates the complexities of female sexuality, seduction and erotica through installation, sound, video, poetry, and photography. McCaig’s work explores the relationship between love and sex and creates work where conceptual gestures are employed to engage complex and often contradictory dialogues.

McCaig will be creating an entirely new body of work, which coincides with the theme of A Modest Show.
