In these moody eras, I\u2019ll get up before work, headphones in, and walk around my misty neighbourhood. The song titles the newest exhibition at Hackney\u2019s Guts Gallery. (It\u2019s My Party) I Can Cry If I Want To<\/em>\u00a0is further inspired by the final scenes of V\u011bra Chytilov\u00e1\u2019s 1966 film\u00a0Daisies<\/a><\/em>. In it, two women find a banquet hall; in a frenzy, they gorge all its food within minutes. Co-curators Ariane Heloise Hughes and Guts\u2019 director and founder Ellie Pennick set the show in this space between hysteria, parties and consumption, having women \u2018devour the world in a narcissistic act of self-indulgence and, in doing so, prevent the world from devouring them.\u2019\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>
