This event responds to Buoyancy, the first UK institutional solo exhibition by Helsinki-based artist Juha Pekka Matias Laakkonen.
About
Join us for a performance presented by exhibiting artist Juha Pekka Mathias Laakkonen.
Expanding on his durational and process-based approach, Laakkonen presents his first ever musical performance at the Montgomery Hall Community Centre, located a five-minute walk from Gasworks. Entitled Flock of Birds, this consists of a short, repetitive composition written for an ensemble of unskilled wind instrument players.
Conducted by musician Hannah Catherine Jones, the performance is divided into simple steps so that each musician plays a single note in sequential order, therefore drifting in and out of sync like a flock of birds—a movement evoked in its title
Schedule
- Meet at Gasworks to see the exhibition at 4pm
- Guided tour of exhibition at 4:30pm
- Walk to Montgomery Hall for the performance at 5pm
