THU 20 FEB—THU 17 APR
Sympoiesis speaks to the idea that human and non-human entities are constantly shaping and being shaped by each other rather than self-creating in isolation.
Sympoiesis, meaning “making with” or “making together,” describes human and non-human existence as inherently collaborative, contextual, and emergent, where nothing exists in isolation and everything is perpetually in a state of interdependent becoming.
In this unique multi-arts season, Honey Fingers Collective brings sculptural artworks from their interspecies exhibition between humans and bees as well as communal food, fermentations, honeycomb activities, and a stunning indoor/outdoor bee chimney. This unique beekeeping project launches with a free opening event FRI 21 FEB 5.30-7.30pm.
The performance program features the transformative music of The Cloud Maker (THU 20 FEB), and a live dance & foley duet by Bec Jensen & Aviva Endean, Slip (21-22 MAR). Each work explores the influence of sensory input and storytelling on our self-becoming. Offsite, Ocean LAB invites you to Thinking with Golden Ecklonia, a multisensory sound walk exploring the hidden wonders of Australia’s Great Southern Reef (APR 12). Sympoiesis offers free and ticketed events.
