A new performance / event by Ellie Harrison in collaboration with Ort Gallery. High Street Casualties brings to life the 'creative destructive' forces of capitalism on Birmingham's busy shopping streets.
Dressed in the torn and faded uniforms of Woolworths, MFI, Borders, JJB Sports, Blockbuster, Phones 4U and more, an army of over sixty 'zombie employees' make their way from the former sites of these now defunct businesses, through the City Centre, before amassing and descending on Ort Gallery at dusk for a Zombie Ball.

The High Street Casualties exhibition ran at Ort Gallery from 28 April - 30 May 2015, documenting both the aftermath and the 'making of' the event and featuring the première of the short film of the project by Tamás Kiss and photography by Marcin Sz & Marta Sobilo. Download Exhibition Guide >
