THE THIRD OF THE THIRD

STEVE CLAYDON

Fri 2 April - Sun 24 April 2004

 

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.
