An occasion hosted by Isabel Lewis

Doors open 5pm, until approximately 9pm
Isabel Lewis hosts a series of “occasions.” A term coined by Lewis herself, the “occasion” is a celebratory meeting of things, people, plants, music, dance and smells that situates itself somewhere between a bar, a lecture and a salon. Lewis’s dramaturgy includes speaking, DJing, dancing, and smells by Norwegian chemist and smell researcher Sissel Tolaas.
Co-commission with Frieze Projects and Liverpool Biennial
