Spectral Geologies [PhD exhibition]


  • Meat Market Stables 2 Wreckyn Street North Melbourne, VIC, 3051 Australia (map)

Spectral Geologies is comprised of three large-scale sound, video and sculptural works examining processes of listening – in the field, as an outsider, in the presence of images and artefacts, and (sometimes) in the absence of sound.

Charting a journey that commences at a monument site and travels from above ground to below (and back again), the exhibition ponders what listening and sound can offer in the witnessing of post-conflict, post-socialist zones and their inculcation in contemporary global commodity and population flows – namely, mineral extraction and the search for asylum in Fortress Europe.

Meat Market is an accessible venue. Please note that this exhibition includes haze and some spaces are dimly lit.
