Rachael Campbell-Palmer and Clodagh Lavelle from Northern Ireland are currently exhibiting their piece GladiARTors in the Contextiles-isation exhibition at Kalopsia Gallery which will end August 31st. Both Rachael Campbell-Palmer and Clodagh Lavelle often use textiles in their individual and collaborative projects and see it as a versatile medium and was within GladiARTors, the perfect medium for creating sculptures that could be shaped and moulded to represent the various forms they required.. and most importantly, ones that could take a beating! - Opponents go head to head with each other in an attempt to discover the Best Artist in Belfast and the Best Artform of all time! No artistic experience necessary- just the heart of a lion, the fight inside and the desire to win. Soft sculptures representing different Artforms are velcroed to competitors’ crash helmets. The role of the GladiARTor is to protect that object from being knocked off and defeated by their opponents. Contestants were encouraged to created their own costumes and bring along their fans for support!
