Dark Days with Ellie Harrison

Caren Gilbert shares the experience of trying to find consensus on how we
should approach life after the apocalype in the pop-up community of Ellie
Harrison's "Dark Days" sleep-over at Glasgow's Gallery of Modern Art.

"Lately, I have noticed in myself a tendency to sign up for events which
reveal little of what to expect beforehand. This leads to a heady mix of
anticipation and mild terror. Dark Days, the brainchild of Ellie Harrison
fitted that description, although I felt that at 16hrs long, it was a mere
blip on my riskometer, compared to week-long excursions I’ve previously
taken into the unknown. In short, I would be spending the night in
Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA), in a pop-up community of 99
strangers, contemplating how we might manage to live together (put up with
each other) in a future where buildings might need to be used in ways which
serve the needs of the population better…Count me in!"
