QING QING LIU 'DRAGON SPAM' (2022), PERFORMANCE: Performance inaugurating 'BODIES GLUTTONY AND ME'

Pictorum Gallery are excited to present DRAGON SPAM, a performance by Qing Qing Liu. 

 

Time: 7pm

Date: 4th May 2023

Place: Pictorum Gallery, 2 Portman Square W1H 6LA

 

This performance will inaguarate our latest exhibition Bodies, Gluttony and Me, an exhibition featuring works by Nettle Grellier, Faye Eleanor Woods, Anna Choutova, Zoe Francis Spowage, Emily Wilcock, Rosie Gibbens, Qingqing Liu, and Damaris Athene.

 

Liu's practice spans moving image, performance, installation, and text. Dragon Spam (2022) plays with a surreal and somewhat absurd scenario of Lui interacting with both man-made and non-man-made objects, including SPAM, to draw attention to the impact of consumerism on women's self-image and bodies. The finale of the performance sees Lui etch 'FLESH' into the block of 'meat' with a large and imposing knife. Liu holds an MA in Contemporary Art Practice: Moving Image from the RCA and has exhibited across Europe

and Asia.
