In 1974, the 24 Hour Concert performed by Australian dancer, choreographer, and artist Philippa Cullen (1950–1975) was cut short by an hour when clocks turned forward for daylight saving. In tribute to Cullen’s lost hour, Diana Baker Smith reanimates the late performers work in her exhibition titled The Lost Hour. The project culminates in a series of collaborative works with dancers Wendy Morrow, Sofie Burgoyne and Brooke Stamp, artists Ella Sutherland and Samuel Hodge, and musicians Bree van Reyk, Miles Brown, and Jon Smeathers.
