PAST EVENT
She Conjured the Clouds
JUSTENE WILLIAMS | AUSTRALIA
WORLD PREMIERE

A glowing, vibrating, technicolour journey of the senses for both kids and adults by internationally acclaimed artist Justene Williams.

Visit a tactile world where you can touch – and sometimes eat – the kaleidoscopic scenery and engage with a fairy tale adventure starring motorbike-riding frogs, carnivorous theremin bats and bird witch puppets. Blurring the boundaries between performer and audience, She Conjured the Clouds invites everyone into a playful, colourful world of touch, sound and visuals. 

She Conjured the Clouds is accessible to all audiences, especially those from the d/Deaf and hard of hearing communities. Check important details below for more access information. 

Known for her spectacular, large-scale installation works encompassing video, photography, sculpture and performance, Williams uses found and recycled materials to create vivid and elaborate environments and costumes anchored in dazzling pattern, colour and movement.

Based in Brisbane, and a practising artist for more than 20 years, Williams’ recent work includes the psychedelic proto-science fiction saga Victory Over the Sun in collaboration with Sydney Chamber Opera, and the hypnotising, ‘performative’ sculptural and video installations The Curtain Breathed Deeply.

She Conjured the Clouds is commissioned and produced by Campbelltown Arts Centre.

"A riot of moving image, dance, storytelling, objects and sound" – Artlink (for The Curtain Breathed Deeply)
