For this year's Triennial, Leckey is showing two main films
in an installation. Made in 'Eaven shows the pristine surface of
American artist Jeff Koons'. Rabbit sculpture, whose contours reflect
a warped and inflated version of British artist Mark Leckey's flat.
The second part of this asymmetric diptych, Drunken Bakers, comprises
straight shots of a comic strip taken from Viz, written by Barney Farmer
and drawn by Lee Healey, with Leckey and fellow artist Steven Claydon
speaking the parts.
