Touching Blank
Time for action – again.
As a part of The Living Art Museum´s 40th anniversary exhibition, Pressure of the Deep, the installation Touching Blank by Saga S.dóttir will be engaged with and re-invented – for the second time this summer.
The ingredients of the installation will be communicated with through disruption, sensuality and savage play: Action as an attempt to shape/embody change, fresh intimacy and new meaning.
Saga S.dóttir is a performing artist, born and based in Reykjavík.

Come one, come all!
