In this live performance, artist Mollie Rice will be in the gallery space receiving people to share their memories and stories of a Lunar New Year celebration or a tradition or ritual significant to them.
As a visitor tells their memory, Mollie will listen and make a blind continuous line drawing, a visual recording of her 'hearing' of the memory.
Through these transmissions, the audience is invited to reflect with curiosity on the way people connect with each other and our experiences in the places we meet.
About the artist
Mollie Rice is an artist based in Sydney, with a Master of Fine Arts from UNSW Art and Design. She was the recipient of an Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship.
Rice works across site and studio exploring ideas of person, place and experience through drawing and the critical practice of listening.
