"Steven Claydon: The Third of the Third"
2004-04-02 until 2004-04-25
Hoxton Distillery
London, ,
UK United Kingdom
The third of the third. The urbano gothic cargo cult. The time bandits and
believers in a nut shell. Little force feeders and those who ascribe ritual
and make things crystal nice. The exotic properties lavished on the other
then transfigured and dumped on the no no men and the ubiquitous ballast of
city. The penniless explorers who navigate those inverted dark continents
where empty offices ape with hubris the fecund polymorphism of jungle Jim
and caravans of ‘clean me’ vans recreate the meaningless meanderings of
nineteenth century wanderlusters.
Those who would inject super-inference of
‘spirit’ into the voids that parallel fleet street cartoon half tone and
the partition walls of charity shop HQ PLC. Direct debit people. The useless
individual. The happy and pittyfull frequency of the hive. One million
pence. Lemon bloody cola. The third of the third.
Hoxton Distillery is co-ordinated by John Hanson, Richard Paul and Chris Tosic.
