I CAN BITE YOU: RACHEL ORTAS SATURDAY 3 – SUNDAY 11 NOVEMBER 2007 PREVIEW: FRIDAY 2 NOVEMBER 2007, 6 – 9PM
The Ai Ai arrive in Brighton. While the toyish candy-coloured Ai Ai might initially appear to be red-cheeked, warm-pawed playthings, Rachel Ortas' creations are in fact extremely sharp in tooth and claw and can assume gargantuan proportions. Screenprints and light-boxes depict the space invaders wreaking havoc to Brighton's landmarks in the classic monsterly tradition.
Visitors to the show have the chance to dress up as an Ai Ai, by donning an Ai Ai-shaped embroidered two-coloured sackcloth.
