Subterranean

Installation: Sat 25 July 2015, 8am onwards.

Subterranean was a concealed performance and a subtle intervention in the very fabric of the Bearpit. For one day only, the skin of the street was ruptured and what was usually unseen appeared on the surface. Visitors encountered an earthy, absurd and transformative meditation on our relationship to the city, its edgelands and the world beneath the pavement.
