Format Space, 15 Peel St, Adelaide
transumer: deviate from the normGet ready to fcuk things up and reimagine Port Adelaide, as you take to the streets clutching self assembled deviation kits, absurd weaponry, a slippery identity and armed with a customised i-torch.
transumer: deviate from the norm is a darkly playful site-based intervention, inviting audiences to undertake tiny acts of resistance against their built environment. A joyful, deviant, profound experience, intent on unhinging our beliefs about what cities bring to our daily lives and how we can subvert the official narratives of place.
This is a new manifestation of a body of work by pvi collective, first commissioned for the 17th Biennale of Sydney in 2010, and has been made in the ‘awaiting development’ landscape of Port Adelaide with a team of local artists.
