SUMMARY:Fremantle Biennale presents Microfictions
DESCRIPTION:Date: 14 November at 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM\nLocation: Naval Store -141 Queen Victoria St\, Fremantle\nDuration: 60 minutes\, looped\nEvent Information: This event is held indoors and undercover. The performance can be entered at any time during opening hours.\n\n\nStep into an unfurling cosmos of sound\, movement and poetry in Microfictions — a major new commission by internationally acclaimed duo Hylozoic/Desires (Himali Singh Soin & David Soin Tappeser)\, in collaboration with Vessel Contemporary. Occupying Fremantle’s iconic Naval Store\, this live performance installation is a slowly shifting meditation on land\, love and deep time.\n\n\nAudiences are invited to recline in suspended hammocks — floating\, as if in the ocean — while a sand mandala in the form of a topographical map morphs slowly beneath them. Charting a course from the ancient supercontinent Pangea to the speculative future of Pangea Ultima\, performers trace the outlines of the evolving continents with materials native and invasive — white sand\, crushed limestone\, salt\, even flecks of gold\, camel hair and cuttlefish— shaping and reshaping borders in an eternal drama of impermanence.\n\n\nTapping into planetary turbulence\, Microfictions is a poetic and sonic meditation on weight — what anchors us — and lightness — what defies gravity and how we drift. Accompanied by a score for upright bass\, electric harp and percussion\, recalling the tectonic rhythms and rumbles of the Earth\, Microfictions traverses oceans\, continents and hemispheres imagining futures of intermingling cultures and languages\, ecological entanglements and human-nonhuman dependencies. This is a powerful call to the intimacy of deep memory and land both as displacement and reconciliation.\n\n\nHylozoic/Desires’ expansive and celebrated practice has been presented at leading institutions including the Serpentine (London)\, Desert X (California)\, Shanghai Biennale\, Venice Biennale\, Sharjah Biennale and the Swiss Institute (New York). Microfictions marks their much-anticipated Australian premiere.\n\n\nhttps://fremantlebiennale.com.au/event/microfictions/?fbclid=IwY2xjawNuQK5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHjfM-YZKjZs0QVEkWPzFTc-FtbOkp6vMWGfu-8n8zAuWunLgFyN-WkVDfDL2_aem_2-Av-HP7C1-B_HYZZ7Iafw

SUMMARY:Fremantle Biennale - Wednesday’s at the End of the World
DESCRIPTION:Date: 19th November at 7:00PM\n\n\nLocation: Sailing for Oranges – LEVEL 1\, 33 South terrace\, Fremantle\nDuration: 2 hours\nThis event is held indoors and undercover.\nThis is a ticketed performance. Latecomers will not be admitted. Please arrive 10 minutes before the performance start time.\n\n\nOver the past year\, theatre/music maker Max Barton has been gathering artists and audiences for a series of one-night-only apocalypse experiments — Wednesdays at the End Of the World. Each month\, in a new location across Walyalup\, four guest artists have responded to a different end-of-the-world scenario — AI takeovers\, meteor strikes\, judgement days and climate collapses — woven together into a live mixtape of music\, theatre and philosophical reflection.\n\n\nPlayful\, haunting and surprisingly hopeful\, these nights have been about facing the final curtain with humour and honesty\, then coming back to the present with fortitude and community spirit. Each event has asked: what do we hold onto when everything is falling away? What can we do together to hold off the inevitable?\n\n\nFor the Fremantle Biennale\, Barton assembles a stellar lineup of musicians and storytellers for a one-off panpocalypse finale. Set by the water\, it’s an invitation to sit together at the edge\, contemplate the worst — and make it to the other side of the night stronger.\n\n\nhttps://fremantlebiennale.com.au/event/wednesdays-at-the-end-of-the-world/?fbclid=IwY2xjawNuQK1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHllK57VUqE8L_NoTCf7alLh_xKWSd8n1-he9tAAJgCxAToR0aDHTKpOtevvS_aem_iqyilLFYyElSCS2mzrFf8Q
