Come celebrate the launch of The Social Sculpture Foundation at an art part with video art, performance art, djs and sparkling wine.* Dave Biddle—who you may know as © Linda Fox— will be debuting a brand new performance art piece. Kevin Holliday will be showing new media art. The Social Sculpture Foundation crew will be showing a new work, too. Djs for the night will be Pomegranate Molasses, Acceleration Radio’s resident dj Ephemeral Objects, and a secret surprise guest! The concept for the night is a meta-commentary on the charity gala economic model—you could think of this as a subverted iteration of that, so if you show up in something you’d wear to a gala, we’re okay with that. Our cause is admittedly radical: the Social Sculpture Foundation is building pop-up drop in centres where the street entrenched community can access vital resources like food and a temporary rest space, but in psychoaesthetically uplifting surroundings staffed by harm reduction peers, challenging the idea of atmospherically restorative spaces being something only certain classes of people deserve. We’re grateful to the Vancouver Status of Women for the community action grant that has us well on the way to completing our first pop-up drop-in centre in 2025, but we need to fundraise a little more to get everything complete, so come out and party with us in the spirit of democratizing uplifting, restorative psychogeographies. The project was founded by someone who ended up homeless, living on the street and in shelters after escaping domestic violence, and later on built the Social Sculpture Foundation in honour of the people she love(s)/d from that period, and to counter the “drear-realism” (to use Mark Fisher’s term) of the spaces containing the services the street-community accesses. Come dance and take in the compelling art in the spirit of this radical disruption! There may even be free canapes. The SSF is grateful for the support of the Vancouver Status of Women and InterUrban Gallery &lt;3 *there’ll be other types of drinks, too. We gratefully acknowledge that this event is taking place on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish + Tsleil-Waututh Nations.
