+ "Like concrete clashing concrete, so did the bus and the people on it collide the water of the river below. Like a stone being thrown into a lake the bus disappeared in the freezing unforgiving water. And quickly, just the same way as the bus had, the screams vanished! 32 had died."
Joao Vaz
The result to the invitation by curator Zoe Brand to take part in the exhibition Precious Material saw the continuation of the long developed projected 32 Dead For Jewellery. All the work exhibited at GAFFA is now online.
