Cirque du Killing - Celebration

On behalf of the CSA board of trustees and CoCA whānau, we are thrilled to invite you to the opening event of Cirque the Killing – Feast, an exhibition by The Killing, a collective of artists currently based in Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland. Participating artists are Venus Blacklaws, Tristan Bloemstein, Daniella Bay, Minsoh Choi, p.A.

The Killing often investigates the intersections of their various and varied lived experiences. This exhibition will invite you to a buffet of dynamic works that digest the visual and social frameworks of what the artists collectively understand to be a Circus.

Employed as a means to examine and ask ourselves questions such as: Where does my body belong within a Spectacle? Within a Circus? Within a gallery? Who am I when I am the subject? The viewer? Am I the feast or the consumer?

Join us on Friday 30 August at 5.30pm for a mihi whakatau, to celebrate the artists, and explore these topics.
