Hello, Welcome to the virtual realm of our Site Fiction project. We are an artist collective experimenting in Perth city to activate empty or disused spaces, and engaging and interacting with any potential audience (you!). We are currently inhabiting the former Arcane Bookshop (212 William St Perth) until 3rd October. During this we will be undertaking a series of performances in the shop front. This blog will be regularly updated with STUFF, so stay tuned!

Tuesday 23rd

post sugar hangover we headed into the bookshop late to survey the damage. No ants but upon opening the doors we were instantly hit with a heady scent of burning sugar. our little jelly community had dehydrated under the heat of the spot light and lay shriveled up on the floor. We quickly put them out of their & our misery and then set to work giving the bookshop a much needed sprucing up- including another window clean, vacuum and a mop. Exhausted but not wanting to leave the site empty for the following day we strung up some bamboo blinds (thanks Darren!) in the window frames. We played with different ways of pulling them forward and it was with the advice of some guys walking past we decided they looked interesting when they twisted around on themselves. We lite them from behind and shut the doors. Across the road in front of the brass monkey if you stand in the right spot they look to be pulling away from each, flaying outwards to reveal a light source.
