Swingers: The Art of Mini Golf lands at Battersea Arts Centre. A playable art exhibition of rebellion and play for the curious, the competitive and anyone bold enough to swing outside the lines.
Play your way through nine adventurous mini golf holes, each designed by a leading female artist, exploring the game's subversive history.
Artist, filmmaker and writer Miranda July (All Fours) goes 'All Fores' for the project.
Kaylene Whiskey sets course with pop icons woven through Anangu culture. Tokyo's Saeborg unleashes latex creatures of cartoonish menace, Delaine Le Bas squares the circle, and Natasha Tontey entwines speculative storytelling with mythology, technology, and alternative histories. Atlanta rapper BKTHERULA joins sound artist Kate Miller to make swamp flowers bloom. Australian duo Soda Jerk open an algorithmic K-hole, and prolific photographer Pat Brassington dives headfirst.
Only the most audacious artists are here because mini golf itself was born of rebellion. The game was originally invented by 19th century Scottish women who were banned from 'real' courses but refused to sit on the sidelines.
Pick your putter. It's art that fills the cup.
