Free!

An art installation usually happens quickly—one day it’s not there, the next it’s installed. But Slow

Art Collective, represented here by Dylan Martorell and Chaco Kato, are interested in the act of

making. Over the course of a week they’ll be gradually gathering plant debris from MPavilion’s

parkland setting to create an indoor installation.

Leaf Art Music is part of One Night Stand, a series of events that respond to MPavilion’s transient,

temporary nature. These live artworks, ambient installations and sonic lullabies provide spaces for

everyone to pause, rest and connect. And they explore the wonderful potential of the night—for

romance, refreshment, dreaming and star-gazing.

Instrument Builders Workshop . NGV.

NGV Studio hosts the first Australian iteration of The Instrument Builders Project
(IBP), an experimental collaborative project between Australian and Indonesian
artists and musicians curated by Kristi Monfries and Joel Stern.
The first two iterations of the IBP were held in Yogyakarta in June 2013 and March
2014. The IBP sets up a shared workshop space, with elements of studio and
gallery, in which artists conceptualise, build, perform and exhibit new works
together over a period of 4 weeks, with scheduled public programs (concerts,
exhibitions, workshops and talks) punctuating periods of experimental 'free time'.
The works created through the IBP draw on both traditional craft-based and
avant-garde approaches and technologies, incorporating practises including
(but not limited to) experimental music, sound sculpture, installation, conceptual
and instructional work and performance art.

The IBP both responds to and seeks to further develop experimental collaborative

work between Indonesian and Australian artists.
