Afterparty and PIPES Exhibition at Pink Ember Studio
From 4.30pm to 7pm on the day, we will host an after party and exhibition opening of PIPES.
PIPES Exhibition
Artists explore the many associations of pipes. A pipe is a tube that flows, a pipe is a wind instrument, a pipe is a carrier, something to put inside your pipe- and smoke it.
Our initial inspiration for the exhibition comes from our recent trouble with the pipes at Pink Ember. The toilet breaking down, sewage explosion and the subsequent flooding. This got us thinking about how fragile the infrastructure that we live in and with, is. As a not for profit ARI, sudden failures, like what happened with our pipes alert us to how we are so beholden to so much outside our control. PIPES is an exploration of the tubes that bind us together - exploring the many associations of pipes.
