Art Flavours reflects Etchells' interest in the encounter between different discourses and cultural frames, exploring the potential for communication and miscommunication between them. A Master Ice Cream maker is asked to create flavours based on the concepts of The Body, Memory, Spectacle and The Archive. City Changes, the second piece on show at Gasworks, is constructed around a game of linguistic manipulation. Using the format of A4 documents, the piece consists of twenty text works displayed in sequence. "In its tracking of the transformation or mutation of a single text through numerous contradictory versions, City Changes renders visible the process of writing itself, producing a complex colour-coded trace of the decisions, additions and omissions of each new incarnation."

The exhibition runs from 5th February 2010 - 28th March 2010. More information is available at www.gasworks.org.uk
