ON MAY 22, a new art space will be opening with a party in the area of Exarcheia. The Argo Annex Project Space kicks off its art programme with a unique performance by Cookie Tongue & Sweet Oddity, and an exhibition of new original artworks by Cookie Tongue. The performance in fact is rather multi-faceted: a multimedia ritual performance using music, costume, art objects, puppets and stop motion animation to create an immersive theatrical experience, described as “Quilted constellations to blanket wish bounded souls…”

About Cookie Tongue:

Cookie Tongue is a theatrical freak folk musical menagerie led by Omer Gal with puppetry, animation, butoh-inspired dance, and ritual magic, featuring original songs and whimsical interludes inspired by Cookie Tongue’s surreal mythology, fairytales, childhood, ghost stories, and a sprinkle of the occult. Performed with guitar, singing saw, glockenspiel, organ, bells, drums, experimental percussion, and orphaned toys to send you tumbling down the Cookie hole, through sugar ash and rolling sleeves of starlight, “spellbound, tasting of a world just beyond.”
