including three new commissions:

Agatha Gothe-Snape (The Commercial, Sydney)

Neha Choksi performs Frame our ears open (2017), following in the footsteps of previous works Minds to Lose/Petting Zoo – for which she anaesthetized herself and four farm animals – and A Rehearsal for a moment of silence for which she stayed in mute isolation for a week.
