Kultura Collectiva: Theatre of Memories

Kultura Collectiva: Theatre of Memories - The sea prayers

Theatre of Memories is an immersive art installation that harmonises the tactile art of Batik painting with modern digital technology, creating a narrative that explores the local history of the Lake Macquarie region.

This captivating artwork is composed of three main elements, each contributing to a richly layered visual and sensory experience. "Theatre of Memories" provides a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of traditional and digital mediums, encouraging contemplation on the ways in which art can build bridges between different time periods and cultural expressions. 

Opening night
