Focus 4 - Dalston Print Club

Went to a crazy exhibition put on by The Dalston Print Club in a damp, dark subterranean bunker-type space just off Dalston High street. There were a couple of eerie projections of shadow-like kids playing with leaves if I can remember......another room with a spiders web covered in lights....a harpist lit by candlelight....and lots of bodies moving about in the dark. The last room was lit by UV with a table tennis table lit with neon tape and matching neon bats....dim fondling of balls with a bunch of strangers.

The second part of the exhibit was at another spot around the corner...above ground....also lit by UV but this time a series of screen prints by local artists all influenced by the patterns and shapes of the various ethnicities found in the Dalston area.
