Talk: A Space without a Use with Claudia Kappenberg, Saturday 21.11.26, 2pm

Our first season opens with Is It Cake?, a group exhibition + events launching at our new space in Deptford @enclaveprojects .

Taking inspiration from Lucy Lippard’s 1984 essay ‘Trojan Horses: Activist Art and Power’, Is It Cake? highlights works that do not represent systems of power, value or institutional organisation, but enter them – co-opting their own languages and structures to explore questions of desire, imitation and labour.
