A collaboration between artist Konstantinos Stamatiou and The Very Many forms the façade of the host space, Cuchifritos Gallery. Inside, a site-specific stadium by Constance Armellino & OFF Architecture is built of recycled materials. There will be video screenings and performances on various dates during the exhibition.
