A Social Gathering
'Gathering' is the new pop-up art installation by artist Saga Arpino at Department of Coffee and Social Affairs.
Coffee shops have long been places where people have come to meet to social, catch up and discuss and debate the ideas of the day. In her latest work, Saga Arpino has created a series of prismatic rings that neatly flow across the windows of Department of Coffee and Social Affairs to highlight the role coffee shops have as incubators for ideas and innovation; an opportunity for people to connect and collaborate.
Anna and I visited Saga's studio workshop several weeks ago to see the making of 'Gathering'. With the work installed yesterday evening, we are looking forward to seeing how people respond and interact with the artwork.
