Artist Photographer and Platform Alumnus Daniel Longo unveils a new body of work, CHAMELEON DEATH at Platform.
“I’m waiting to open the door one day to vultures or angels, eager to kill me - or save me. I don’t care, but also, I care. The goodness of people frightens me, but also, the badness of people fills me with joy. They both want pieces of me; what is left of me anyway – and whatever is left of me, is mine, though. How can I give loose change to the wealthy?”
CHAMELEON DEATH explores photography, sound and video within a gallery space. There will be a live sound performance in the gallery from 7PM by Daniel Longo and Scott Mclatchie.
Join us for the opening of this exhibition on March 26, from 6PM-8PM in Gallery 1. Exhibition runs until April 30.
Please be advised that this exhibition contains nudity. Under-age people in attendance should be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
