The Changing Room

Around the dinner table, conversation is lively

with Oscar and Sophie Bannan

Saturday 29 March, 7-10pm

“Our queer joy is domestic joy. Our queerness is a state of radical intimacy with domesticity, communities, space.”

You are kindly invited to a dinner party hosted by sibling-artist duo Oscar and Sophie Bannan. Taking inspiration from their exhibition Chicken Poems, the artists encourage you to join them in celebrating the domestic space through a home-cooked meal. Envisioned as an extension of their collaborative project, this event offers a unique opportunity to gain intimate insight into the lives of the artists, contextualising their relationship as siblings and collaborators.

Registrations open 1 March. Spaces are limited, tickets are priced at $25 each. Suitable for ages 18 and over. Direct all enquiries to gusfishergallery@auckland.ac.nz
