ACall Festival #3
Opening: Wednesday 6 December 6-9pm
7 - 10 December 2023
Staffordshire St, SONS OF CRAFT and studio/chapple present ACall Festival #3.
For its third edition, multidisciplinary design lab SONS OF CRAFT and Deptford-based project space studio/chapple collaborate once again for the ACall Arts Festival: A week-long exhibition and series of events that celebrates the intersection between art, music, fashion and design.
This year, the theme builds on a mythology - or ‘techno-mythology’ - that centres around technology’s resulting impact on consumerism and the commodification of the human existence. Playing on classical mythology, ideas of the underworld - both literally and metaphorically - will form a setting in which notions of desire and greed, industrial downfall, and technological decay will be enacted out within the crevice between myth and reality.
Participating artists:
Aaron Roth, Ahyeon Ryu, Amba Sayal-Bennett, Chaney Diao , Emily Mulenga , Enorê, Estefanía B. Flores, Kialy Tihngang , Laura Kazaroff, Linnea Skoglösa , László von Dohnányi, Madeleine Pledge
