DAMP at Heidi Muesum

Last night I went to an opening for DAMP, the art group that put together the Group Group show, at the Heidi Museum. There were probably 500 people in attendance, speeches by the Premier and Board Chair of Connex (the people who run the tram system), and then everyone queued to go inside for the show.



DAMP made one of those stand-up scenes, a picture of their group re-enacting the nativity scene, where audience members were invited to go stand behind the image and stick their faces through. The museum volunteers took pictures of people doing it, and posted them on the wall throughout the night.



As an added detail, the museum made t-shirts with DAMP written like the Gary Indiana "love" postage stamp, and all of the waiters (there were at least 20) and volunteers were wearing them. Lucky me, I get to take one home. Won't The M.O.S.T. be jealous?
