Silent Treatment

PERFORMANCE ✿ $15 — LIMITED TICKETS, BOOKINGS ESSENTIAL
NIDA Studios, 152 Sturt Street, Southbank.

A tree falls in the middle of the forest, surrounded by an orchestra: tuba, cello and all. The musicians sit unmoving, for exactly 4 minutes and 33 seconds: does anybody hear? Silence is golden, but gold can be so loud. The impulse to create perhaps begins in a tunnel of silence; in our world, now drowning in noise, silence becomes resistance, persistence. It is only fitting that in the world’s quietest room, you can still hear your very own heartbeat.

NIDA and LIMINAL present ‘Silent Treatment’, an exploration of silence, featuring Angie Pai, flower boy 卓颖贤, Tracey Chen, Jamie Marina Lau, Darlene Silva Soberano, Panda Wong, Kezia Yap, Hannah Wu, Rachel Lee, James Lew and Leah Jing McIntosh.

Supported by Mapping Melbourne Festival & Multicultural Arts Victoria.
