Expanding on the themes of their exhibitions, Post-extinction huia soundings and Requiem in Power (RIP), join Sally Ann McIntyre, Gabrielle Skye Nehrybecki and Olive Guardiani for performances that bring traces of lost and altered worlds into the present.

About the exhibitions
Post-extinction huia soundings | Sally Ann McIntyre
This exhibition explores the calls of the extinct huia bird. The artist plays musical notation of huia calls on 19th century audio technology at sites where the bird was spotted, observing how living birds respond to a vanished voice, highlighting relationships that have existed for millennia.
Requiem in Power (RIP) | Gabrielle Skye Nehrybecki & Olive Guardiani
Grounded in material, ecological, and existential concerns, this collaborative exhibition by Gabrielle Skye Nehrybecki and Olive Guardiani memorialises local trees that were torn down to build a solar farm.
