This Hideous Replica

Icon / Small / Calendar Created with Sketch. 23 Aug 2024 - 16 Nov 2024

Lifting its title from a misheard line in a 1980 song by The Fall about a reclusive dog breeder whose 'hideous replica' haunts industrial Manchester, this experimental project—a concoction of artworks, performances, screenings, workshops, a 'replica school' and other uncanny encounters—adopts monstrous replication as a tactic, condition and curatorial framework for exploring algorithmic culture, simultaneously alienating, seductive and out-of-control.
