The (un)Usual: When the Familiar Becomes Strange
Region: Northern Rivers
Y1: $20,000.00

The (un)Usual is an experimental cross-artform project involving partnerships between emerging and professional artists of varying abilities. Posing the question ‘What happens when the familiar becomes strange?’, visiting professional artists will present and collaborate with local artists to produce innovative live art outcomes in both traditional performances spaces and unusual venues in the Lismore CBD, Wilsons Riverbank and South Lismore. The (un)Usual is a creative laboratory playfully investigating our relationship with the material world, both natural and manmade, through sound, text and image.
