Where the nexus of wild, weird and downright odd have come together for three weeks during Tasmania's winter solstice.
Starting next week, there will be a four-day symposium called 'Dark + Dangerous Thoughts' exploring themes including identity politics and a yet-to-be-announced performance artwork by Mike Parr, who last year, buried himself beneath the surface of a busy Hobart road, for 72-hours.
Overstimulated festival goers can become part of the art by popping on monochrome pajamas and settling onto a color wheel, where therapists will do treatments, in front of other visitors as part of another exhibition. At night, the 'nocturnal neighborhood' features a Night Mass, with artists including Empress Of and Junglepussy - as well as what one organizer described as 'ritualistic' late night partying.
"We need to create an experience of a safe but unexpected nature, something that is not designed to shock you, but is definitely designed to poke gently at your curiosity and life experiences," said associate artistic director Jarrod Rawlins."It is designed to make you wonder, in moments that are unfamiliar, unconventional, and unexpected, combined with moments that are simply beautiful and fun.
