GR1NS INNER CIRCLE - INITIATION

The first of the Inner Circle series of shows also acted as a primary research project informing my dissertation writing surrounding the concept of designed surrender.  This concept of designed surrender and the key tenets I discovered through using the Inner Circle series as a research piece has led to future academic oppurtunities, namely guest lecturing at Greenwich University and contributing to an upcoming Strange Attractor Press book.

As with all Gr1n shows I am heavily involved in the full 360 production. I conceptualise the show, liase with artists and curate the lineup, create marketing strategy and promotional assets and design the set.

The cultural impact of this show caught the attention of 032c magazine interviewing us about the emerging nightlife subculture we were creating.

One attendee was so enamoured by the unique other world we created that they retold there experience in this Dazed article.
