'Asides and illustrations' is a set of actions and readings in which two performers, referred to simply as “the writers”, move through the exhibition highlighting connections, disconnections and linguistic slippages. These subtle interventions reanimate the works which form the exhibition Little Sound. “The writers” bring the fabric and context of the gallery into sharper focus and playfully experiment with ideas of time, value, the inside and the outside.  

'Asides and Illustrations' is performed by Charlie Godet Thomas and Kennedy Jopson. It has been developed by Charlie Godet Thomas in conjunction with his solo presentation Little Sound at Vitrine, Fitzrovia.

Finissage 4-7pm

Reading at 6:30pm
