Diving: Patrick Cole

Carrie Skinner, Alex Misick

‘Diving’ The Glue Factory, 22 Farnell St. G4 9SE Patrick Cole --
Glasgow based artist Patrick Cole presents a new site specific performance; ‘Diving’.
“With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, When we could be diving for pearls”
Robert Wyatt/ Elvis Costello; ‘Shipbuilding’
Diving dissects the mortality of a pearl diver living aboard a submarine, a character who exists within an abstract narrative, drawing upon experiences of depression and anxiety. He explores the perceived threat to notions of masculinity within post-industrial society.
Cole often employs humor to engage with a collective consciousness, creating a cathartic experiences. This site specific performance will be staged in the Glue Factory’s Tank Room, a space continually permeated by damp and mold.
Diving is the result of a collaboration between Cole and local arts programmer Alex Misick.
