presented by Elaine Levy Project, Brussels, Opening 7 February 2009 in the context of "Gimme More"
Fortune Teller is International Festivals contribution to the 3rd anniversary group show at Elaine Levy Project, Brussels. This sculptural object made of t-shirts and fluff was originally conceived for Tate Liverpool as part of the large-scale installation Start Me Up, 2008 - 2009.

The object proposes a place for conversation laid out over symbolic scenarios, but in fact Fortune Teller has nothing to do with this, it's a bunch of t-shirts sewn together where kids should play, babies scream, grownups cuddle and kiss and laughter flourish without conditions. "Fortune Teller" isn't telling fortunes but a soft spot were we ourselves lay our our future, by jumping up and down, tickling each other until it hurts or perhaps by taking of our clothes.
