Andrew Gannon Performance: THIS WORK MAY CONTAIN NUTS

Duration: 2h, drop in for as long as you'd like
Dates: Sat 11 Apr 2026 14:00 - 16:00

This performance explores the social pressure to conceal disability, asking what happens when the disabled body is made visible instead. Using squirty cream to replace a limb cast, Gannon playfully 'decorates' his left arm, drawing on ideas of aestheticisation, absurdity and discomfort.

Referencing themes of objectification, desire and vulnerability, the work centres the artist’s own body, making disability visible while questioning how bodies are looked at, valued and consumed.
