Heather Goodchild- Nuit Blanche project at AGO this Saturday!


Made it Then, Make it Again

Heather Goodchild with Naomi Yasui, Josh Hall and Doug Paisley

September 29 – 30, 2012, 7 pm – 7 am
Heather Goodchild's participatory multi-faceted project evolves as a choreographed and romanticized vision of manufacturing processes. Working with artists Naomi Yasui, Josh Hall and musician Doug Paisley, Goodchild presents communal assembly line work as a fulfilling occupation which contributes to personal and social well being.

This project will use the AGO's Weston Family Learning Centre as its stage throughout the 12 hours of Nuit Blanche, and include over 100 workers performing together in a choreography of systemized fabrication married with song and movement. Throughout the night, the public will witness the mass fabrication of uniforms, drinking cups, chairs and screen-printed wallpaper that will transform the AGO studio from a blank space into a hive of labor-based activity.
