An experimental dance film projected across a four-storey building in cinematic 9:16, developed through the artist residency at the Centre for Projection Art. The work interrogated gender binaries and heteronormative assumptions, weaving expressionist movement with landscape imagery into a living tapestry of queer intimacy. A contemporary ballet unfolded between Mon and Soley as they moved across an ocean horizon. Their embrace lingered, then dissolved, as limbs unraveled in symbiotic rhythm—an abstract meditation on desire, connection, and the fragile choreography of becoming.
A Strange Space was an open-air exhibition presented in conjunction with MIDSUMMA, Melbourne’s queer festival, which transformed Collingwood Yards into a canvas for site-responsive projection, performance, music, dance, and interactive online works. Featuring LGBTQIA+ artists and allies, the program activated the courtyard, the Centre for Projection Art Studio, and digital platforms as spaces for connection, celebration, and radical visibility.
