Featuring a mesmerising original score composed by Ben Ely (Regurgitator), set in the imagined sweeping landscape of a classic old western, Cowboy is an interactive, solo contemporary dance work.

From surfing trains to taming horses to wandering the desert, this work unpacks your ability to have a complete, genuine, and meaningful experience as an imagined self.

 

 

Saddle up and enter the world of Cowboy for a poignantly funny yet sensitive ride.

“Depthless is a brilliantly navigated transit along the edges of conflict and power, a meditation on who we are, how we connect and the many ways we fail to.

 

 

With stunning songwriting by multi-ARIA award winning musician Ben Ely (Regurgitator), performed by Guy Webster and with powerful dance by choreographer Kate Harman, Depthless is both remarkably vulnerable and explosively urgent.”

In particular, territories that exist between the real and imaginary, animal and human.

This exhibition will include drawing, video, installation, sculpture and live performance that focus upon depictions of various hybrid forms. These works present a kind of personal mythology that feature imaginary forms and environments that sit somewhere between the animal, human, plant and non-human realms as well as drawing on the everyday and the subconscious.

This exhibition will be made in collaboration with Ali Cameron (video), Olivia Porter (video/performance) and Ben Ely (performance).

Artwork for sale – Zoe’s artwork will be for sale through the entirety of the exhibition at the Box Office
