Sarah Duffy presents The Other Interior; a series of immersive overnight experiences for one participant at a time in a hotel room in the city centre of Nottingham.
Drawing on cinematic and literary depictions of hotel rooms such as those of David Lynch and the magical realist hotels of Haruki Murakami Novels, The Other Interior, will reveal to the participant, the hidden inner life of a hotel room, filled with the residue of previous occupants and the lingering presence of others.
If you are planning on visiting Nottingham to see Sideshow and the British Art Show 7 and are currently looking for somewhere to stay, then why not combine your overnight stay with becoming a participant of a unique one-off personal performance by booking into the Ibis Hotel, 16 Fletchergate in the heart of Nottingham's city centre, just up the road from Nottingham Contemporary.
Sarah Duffy is a Nottingham based artist who has exhibited in both the UK and Japan. Her practice is interdisciplinary and encompasses performance, installation and video work. She has also been involved with curation, both inside and outside of ‘Sixes & Sevens’.
The Other Interior will take place on 30, 31 October / 6, 7, 13, 14, 20, 21, 27,2 8 November / 4, 5, 11, 12, December.
If you would like to experience this unusual performance you will also be able to make use of Ibis hotel's special Sideshow reduced rate of £50 per room.
Pre-Booking essential. Please note booking is for 1 person per room, per 1 night experience only.
To book a room please email: marie@sideshow2010.org and leave details of your name and address plus a contact telephone number. The artist will then be in touch with further instructions about how to book into the hotel for your exclusive 1 night experience.
