OFFSTAGE RETURNS TO ARTSPACE

OFFSTAGE is Tautai Contemporary Pacific Art Trust’s annual moving image and live performance event. Although the approach of OFFSTAGE is in continuous transformation as venues and curators change with each exhibition, OFFSTAGE continues to create a platform for new and experimental moving image and performance work by Pacific artists.

This year in its seventh iteration OFFSTAGE7 returns to Artspace and features eight video works and three live performances which will take place on the opening night. The exhibition will focus on personalised narratives, bringing together works with a variety of concerns such as gender, distance, the body, labour, knowledge and embodied trauma.
