Tomorrow 2pm NEEDLEWORK: live skin interface. A new performance by Marian Sandberg. Tattoo artist: Holley Rentsch. Essay: Stelarc. Following on from Sandberg’s 2024 performance “Data Reveal Party”, Sandberg again conceives of this performance as a “party”: a goodbye or farewell to the melanin destroyed by her own immune system. Come join us, all welcome, snacks and drinks provided. Please note, during Needlework a tattoo will be applied directly to the skin of the artist. A trigger warning is advised for people with trypanophobia and hematophobia.
