Shakespeare South has been invited to contribute an immersive performative piece for the European Cultural Centre’s “Time, Space, Existence” exhibition at the Biennale Architettura, 2023.
The original sound performance is part of a larger work by Dr Ainslie Murray and Associate Professor Joshua Zeunert of the University of New South Wales combining visual art installation, multi-media and soundscape to convey environmental disruption in Australia’s landscape.
Shakespeare South and Miles Franklin Award winner Dr Josephine Wilson (Murdoch University) adapted the performance text from Anthropocene Poetics (2019) by Professor David Farrier of the University of Edinburgh. Original place-based sound was recorded, designed and produced by Dr Leo Murray (Murdoch University) and combined with poetic-dramatic text performed by Alys Daroy.
The work forms part of Shakespeare South’s performance research into biophilic eco-theatrical modes of practice and creative responses to ecological crises.
Co-created by Alys Daroy, Leo Murray and Joshua Zeunert.
Shakespeare South operates on both Kaurna Country and the lands of the Whadjuk and Binjareb Noongar People. We pay our respect to their enduring and dynamic cultures and the leadership of Elders past, present and emerging. We perform on many other unceded lands and extend respect to all the First Nations People who have cared for Country and performed here for over 65,000 years. Always Was, Always Will Be.
