Typeface Live Tattoo collaboration with Penni Grigg & mural project
In the CoCA Toi Moroki Summer Performance Series, supported by the CCC Transitional Fund, artists were invited to respond to the context of Ōtautahi Christchurch, and to develop a performance activating transitional spaces in the CBD.The artists were encouraged to look beyond the ‘post-earthquake’ status and consider performances in relationship to their own identities and experiences. At a time when the city is re-emerging, these works offer a chance to consider the diverse socio-political and cultural narratives that intertwine, shaping our identities.
Ten volunteers were gifted tattoos with the artwork also featured in large scale murals.
