Excess


I have finally returned from Paris where i was curating a pop up exhibition at Pret a Porter about the concept of Excess. The other half of the cavernous space was curated by the awesome and exceptionally creativeAlexandra Senes, around the concept of Less.

I got some great people to contribute to the space. It was overall designed by James Lambert. My sister Seana Gavin who created a wall full of afro-punk Voodoo Dolls and a textured giant wall collage. Chrissie Abbott designed a totem pole. Telegramme made colouring book images. Simon Owens of Off the Uncertain Button made a music programme. I created a wall of videos by Jimmy Joe Roche, Pierre Debusschere and Hudson-Powell. There was a bright yellow floor and kaleidoscopes in the walls...
