Argo Escargot - Jen Denzin - New Annual


A rogue shipping container Argo Escargot has found its way home, with a cargo of tall tales, lost histories and a healthy dose of the absurd. Enter the wild imagination of artist Jen Denzin and be transported into a world of facts and fantasy– stranger than fiction. Argo Escargot pays homage to a place shaped by storms, shipwrecks and spectral echoes of the past.

Eerie tales of wartime submarines, haunting narratives of ships wrecked on the rocks, and rollicking historical yarns meld into a multisensory immersive experience. Featuring moving lights, enigmatic projection works, velvety soundscapes and Jen Denzin's subliminal, subversive installations, Argo Escargot begs the question: where have you been and what have you seen?

Bring the whole family and immerse yourselves into this mesmerising world from one of Newcastle's most adored artists.
