CROCODILE CRADLE
97-99 Hoxton St
London
N1 6QL
20 February - 20 March 2021
David Austen and Peter Liversidge are among a number of artists involved in Crocodile Cradle; a new exhibition on three platforms: a filmed performance online, accessible via a QR code; a text collage on the gallery's glass façade; and a book, to be published this summer.
For this collaborative project, artist Simon Moretti invited artists to supply a text that they have written or found. The artists' texts have been brought to life with a reading by actor Alastair Mackenzie; a 38-minute-film of his one-take performance will be viewable on smartphones via a QR code, accessible from the gallery windows and online. A live performance and publication will follow later in the year.
