Flyway

29 April 2016 to 1 May 2016 The Substation, 1 Market Street, VIC, Australia.

FLYWAY is a performative walk that immerses audiences in the epic and enchanting journeys of migratory birds. Created responsively in each new location it explores our ecological connections, embedding field research of local birds, people and places into the urban fabric of the performance site. Wearing headphones and binoculars audiences are enveloped in a sonic landscape and guided through the city to encounter video artworks and a shifting, cinematic environment. 

FLYWAY investigates the annual threatened journeys that migratory birds make across a changing globe in search of rest, food and a nest. Using video, sound and movement to merge foreground and background it points to an evolving understanding of 'Nature'. 

Dress: FLYWAY is an outdoor walking experience. It begins and ends at different locations (close to public transport). Please wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather. 

Binoculars will be provided, but if you have your own feel free to bring these.
