My Brutal Life – Exhibition, Live Show and New Album

Posted on 6th September 2023 in Gigs, Releases

In October 2023, we’ll be launching a special exhibition in Sheffield featuring a carefully curated selection of artists from a wide range of artistic disciplines. The event, called “My Brutal Life”, will be held over two weeks in the striking Moore Street substation.

As part of this exhibition, we’ll also be launching a new album and performing a one-off live show on the 7th October at Sheffield drama studio.

“My Brutal Life delves into the profound aspects of our artistic endeavours encompassing brutalism, the environment, and humanity. Throughout our ongoing creative journey, we consistently gravitate towards these themes, documenting and exploring the human experience within these environments.

Our unwavering fixation on Symmetry, Synchronisation, and Repetition are the driving force in our artistic expression. Moreover, we strive to peel away superficial layers to expose the underlying emotional strata of the human aspect, unearthing the often overlooked beauty within the ordinary.

Although frequently disregarded, the human aspect resonates with echoes from the past, enlightening and guiding our artistic process. Even the failures encountered serve as poignant reminders of the delicate structures we construct.

My Brutal Life constitutes a pivotal component within an enduring exhibition, meticulously crafted to delve into the aesthetic and human facets of brutalism.”
