With an authoritative and defiant hand, Shock & Ore brings forth a hype of guerrilla theatre. Artist collective Tennant Creek Brio, who are based on Warumungu Country at Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory, bravely share their stories of living culture from Country, a psalm of Ancestral power, alchemy, and renewal.
Each of the artist’s practices is navigated through a collective spirit of energetic and transformative work and at times utilises discarded materials and debris from the backstreets and underground mines of Tennant Creek.
