Things Fall Apart, captured in a culture net

For a write-up of Blackcurrant Productions' October 3-4, 2009 Scotiabank Nuit Blanche show, Things Fall Apart, check out Zhina Jalali's article in the SharpObjex.net experimental culture blog.

The interview draws attention to Sarah Lochhead's movement-based film, I almost forgot, shown in the Barrie Film Festival's Short Film Showcase after its Scotiabank Nuit Blanche premiere.

It also comments on some of the more unusual sculptures in the show -- Michelle Johnson's silicone puddles of Mustard & Ketchup, and Annie Tung's place setting of spoons with teeth and pearls set in silver, Time passes slowly (but spares nothing).

To the right and below, glimpses of these sharp little objects, photographed by Taibe Palacios, to whet your palates for another Nuit Blanche enterprise next year.
