With artists including Felix Adler, Laurene Buchheit, Ece Canguden and more, the show features painting and mixed-media installations, sprawling across the exposed walls of the space and playing on its abandoned atmosphere. Also featuring Hugo Laporte, Lana Duval, Famed among others, the artists riff on each other with odd humour, playfulness and moments of the absurd.**
