Ground on Ground

Step into a shimmering eclipse, where sun and moon engage in a mysterious duet, and sound, light and music invite us to transcend our world of flesh. *Ground On Ground *holds in tension the inexorable march of the spheres with our tenuous realities: digital, social, simulated, where our bodies fall away and the real is questionable.

This performance, developed through a series of collaborative workshops between artists in Australia and Hong Kong, based around the notion of mapping the meta discourses between diverse artistic practices: sculpture, new media, sound, installation; Ground On Ground rages in continual sound and light, and contemplates the ever present condition of our falling bodies in space.

Featuring Liveworks 2024 favourites Emily Parsons-Lord, Shan Turner-Carroll and Evelyn Ida Morris, with Hong Kong-based Taurin Barrera, Lazarus Chan Long Fung, Vvzela Kook, Davor Vincze, Karen Yu, and current.cam (Provides Ng, Eli Joteva, Yanzi and Artem Konevskikh).
