It started so peacefully but it would be foolish to suggest that the pinata didn’t see it coming. DAMP’s It’s a World full of Hurt exhibition at Utopian Slumps - the new art space in Collingwood - finishes this Sunday. Everyone gets to choose their weapon and gets up to two hits each. There might not be much left to destroy but it’s worth checking out anyway for both the remnants of the installation and for the gallery itself.
