Sydney-based artist Michaela Gleave’s practice spans installation, performance, sound, video, photography, sculpture, and digital and online works, and is grounded in long-form, research-driven projects.
Drawing on concepts from astrophysics, quantum physics, and Earth sciences to explore limits of observation, knowledge, and scale, Event Horizon presents four new bodies of work alongside Gleave’s performance series Universal Maintenance. To heighten audience awareness of processes of perception, Gleave uses energy fields and physical materials including mist, sound waves, atmospheric conditions, glitter, musical instruments, recycled timber, and inflatable objects.
