Spencer Tunick is an artist who has made a name for himself by getting nude – well, asking lots of people to get nude for him.

The US artist is returning to Australia for his latest project as part of MELT Festival. It will pair the premiere of his latest project TIDE, which was first created on Brisbane’s Story Bridge, on 18 November 2023, with a monumental second installation of RISING TIDE on the Bridge, on Sunday 27 October 2024.
