TMS Supports 2022
Gordon Douglas is performance artist who works closely with arts and educational organisations. He devises embedded positions, unannounced events, and plays games with organisational staff and their stakeholders. His practice is founded on a commitment to (and scepticism of) collaboration, and sees him take on roles that: celebrate birthdays amidst austerity (Black Box Take Stock, Travelling Gallery, 2018), sign custody for eight-person tents (Absolutely Present, 2016-ongoing), hold it together then break down in offices (An Opposites Programme, CCA Glasgow, 2018-19), and elect non-humans to positions on Boards (That’s Governance!, SSW, 2021).
