The Flickering Darkness
Celebrate the launch of The Flickering Darkness (Revisited) by Juan del Gado, a Phoenix offsite exhibition at the LCB Depot's Lightbox gallery.
The evening will include drinks and a preview of the exhibition, followed by an artist's talk by Juan about the making of The Flickering Darkness (Revisited) and his time spent researching and filming in Colombia.
The Flickering Darkness (Revisited) is a film installation exploring the journey that food produce takes from its arrival before dawn at the Corabastos market in Bogotà, Colombia to its consumption across the social spectrum.
In this film, artist Juan delGado attempts to create sense out of the market's chaos and order, while inviting wider reflections on society's strata and how they interact.
The Flickering Darkness (Revisited) is supported by Unlimited; celebrating the work of disabled artists, using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and Spirit of 2012. Through this support the work is accompanied by an audio description (available through headsets at any time) and screened with captions at regular intervals.
Juan delGado works across a range of media including video installation and photography. His practice explores themes of trauma, landscape, disability, dislocation and gender. His work has been exhibited internationally including at the Budapest and Istanbul Biennales.
The exhibition runs at the LCB Depot, Rutland St, Leicester, from 12 – 27 Nov (not inc weekends).
