About
APT9 artist Enkhbold Togmidshiirev will stage an improvised roving performance in the outdoor spaces surrounding GOMA, as part of his ongoing Ger Project. Since 2008, Enkhbold has created a number of personalised structures derived from the form of the traditional Mongolian ger or yurt, in order to forge a connection with his surroundings. Setting up a ger creates a temporary home that Enkhbold equates to a spiritual space. His previous improvised performances have taken place on the frozen steppes of Mongolia, in the desert, at the edge of the sea, by the side of a highway, and in the streets and squares of Manchester, Rotterdam and Venice. Please note this performance will commence on the city end of the Kurilpa Bridge, with Enkhbold making his way across the bridge before concluding the performance in the GOMA Forecourt.
