I Die
A tableau vivant created in collaboration with twelve writers, one musician, twelve muses, and their loved ones.
I Die is born of the desire for understanding the impact of death, of dying, of loss, of change. It offers no answers, but lays bare the questionings of it's seventy or more contributors.
More personally, it is a response to living with the desire to die. One hopes that if we celebrate our lives more, and are reminded often that death will come, then just maybe the longing will subside.
Muses; Leon Twardy, Nigel McRae, Sean Louth Robins, Francis Elliot, Jo Telfer, Michael Ellis, DJ Gosper, Karina Bontes Forward,Fiona MacPherson, Jeff Thompson, Ben Drysdale, Liv Edgar, Beth tully, Simone Penkethman.
Eulogies by; Maria Fleming, Monica Carroll, Hal Judge, Emma Gibson, Nat Burke, Chanel Cole, Anne-Maree Britton, Joan Cornish, David Finigan, Adam Hadley, Andrew Galan, and Naomi Milthorpe.
Music by; Liam Morrissey
I Die was presented as part of the CCAS performance program at Canberra Contemporary Artspace.
