FOODFIGHT ARTSHOW

La Cathedral Studios, Dublin

7:30 PM till 11:30PM

Info

A food fight is a form of chaotic collective behavior, in which food is thrown at others in the manner of projectiles. These projectiles are not made to harm or damage others, but to simply ignite a fight filled with spontaneous food throwing. - thank you Wikipedia!

What do six Belfast artists have in common?

How about a strangely obsessive draw towards food!

Or fighting with it …

FOOD FIGHT! is a show that will take the artist out of Belfast and root himself and herself firmly in the realm of foodie heaven, each exploring their sugar-encrusted, fuel vs. taste tendencies.

While (more conservative, one might say) exhibitions deal with worldy issues like love, death, beauty…and dare I say it, politics….this will be an unabashed foray into the one thing we are supposed to do every day of our lives! EAT! What else can you say you do three times a day without your friends staging interventions?

Each artist has been thrown in the custardy deep end to sink or swim, providing you with their idea of culinary bliss, exploring their artistic character's relationship with grub, and delving into to pithy depths of their psychological relationship with nom-noms.

If that's not enough for you greedy-guts', come along and watch each artist battle it out for the Killer Cupcake prize in a LIVE PAINTING SESSION, you can win your own arty prize on the night with our old school "guess the weight of the Killer Cupcake" competition, break out some of those moves you learned on New Year's with some banging tunes, and make a jolly old mess you won't get in trouble for by bursting our balloon installation that will be filled with mystery food! Tickets will come with a free drawing pin, or you can bring your own. Drinks sponsorship is being done by the lovely folks at TIGER BEER!
