Composer Lisa Lerkenfeldt presents the world premiere of new work With Water Up To Her Knees.

In collaboration with video artist and film director, Tristan Jalleh, a densely detailed hyper reality of hidden rooms and resonances will be revealed.

Set in present day Naarm, within an amphitheater of abandoned infrastructure, With Water Up to Her Knees blends performance, animation and sound.

Drawing from the artist’s field work and electroacoustic practices, piano and tape arrangements light up lost chambers and underground histories in a patchwork of reflective musique concrète, instrumental composition and surreal cinema.

With Water Up To Her Knees spotlights underground networks opening questions of reality, virtuality and perception through oral traditions, experimental AV composition and diary-like vignettes.
