Dark Mofo's 'Jewel' Artwork to Resonate Across Hobart – Hear It From 7km Away!
Dark Mofo Returns with a Sonic Spectacle: 'Every Jewel Reflects Every Other Jewel'
Hobart is bracing itself for the return of Dark Mofo, the renowned winter festival known for its provocative and immersive art experiences. This year, the festival is kicking things off with a truly extraordinary and unavoidable artwork: 'Every Jewel Reflects Every Other Jewel'. But this isn't your typical visual art piece – it's a sprawling, sonic installation designed to be heard across a staggering 7km radius from the city centre.
What is 'Every Jewel Reflects Every Other Jewel'?
The artwork, a key highlight of Dark Mofo 2024, is a complex and deeply resonant performance piece. Details remain intentionally vague, adding to the mystique and intrigue surrounding the event. What’s known is that it’s designed to be a deeply immersive experience, not just for those physically present near the installation, but for a vast audience throughout Hobart. Think of it as a sonic landscape, subtly shifting and evolving, impacting the atmosphere of the entire city.
A City-Wide Soundscape
What makes this artwork particularly unique is the way it will be distributed. Dark Mofo is activating a rarely-used mass notification system to ensure the sound reaches as many people as possible. This system, typically reserved for emergency broadcasts, will be used to transmit the artwork’s audio, creating a truly city-wide soundscape. This unprecedented approach transforms the entire city of Hobart into a gallery, blurring the lines between art and everyday life.
Why the Mass Notification System?
The decision to utilize the mass notification system underscores the ambition and scale of the artwork. Dark Mofo aims to create an experience that transcends the traditional boundaries of an art festival, engaging the entire community. It’s a bold move that highlights the festival's commitment to pushing creative boundaries and challenging conventional notions of art consumption.
Dark Mofo: A Festival of Provocation and Intrigue
Dark Mofo has consistently established itself as a festival unlike any other. It's known for its dark, experimental, and often unsettling art that explores themes of history, mythology, and the human condition. 'Every Jewel Reflects Every Other Jewel' perfectly embodies this spirit, promising an unforgettable and thought-provoking experience for all who encounter it.
