Mariana Fantich Wimbledon’s Digital Media Technician is opening Red In Tooth And Claw her and Dominic Youngs exhibition at the beginning of October. Fantich & Young’s sculpture Double Games; Red In Tooth And Claw deploys 300.000 Sheffield steel stanley blades to subvert the competitive attributes of vintage school gymnasium apparatus.

Fantich and Dominic Young have lived in Hackney Wick for over six years and have seen first hand the massive urban transformation due to the successful London Olympic bid. To them the Olympic site is like a mini city within a vast metropolis, it reflects the identity of its host. The Olympic Games like London share similar personality traits; they actively endorse ruthless competitiveness, hierarchal objectives and statistic driven targets. It’s quite apt then that the work is being shown in the Hackney Wick area at SEE Studio within the vicinity of the 2012 Olympic Games site.
