Acclaim for STA at Lines in the Sand Festival
01 July 2014
Shane Thompson Architects were praised for their installation as “place makers” for the main performance at the Lines in the Sand festival over the weekend 28-29 June.
The collaboration with visual artist Renata Buziak, sound artists Vanessa Tomlinson and Nicholas Ng and dancer Jan Baker-Finch proved extremely popular with the audience, quoted as a simply stunning and moving experience.
Work took place over 2 weekends to design and erect an engaging setting using natural found materials carefully constructed within the surrounding landscape, composed to enhance the feature performance, Flux, at Mooloomba Reserve, Point Lookout, North Stradbroke Island.
The work was subsequently requested by the festival organisers to be retained as an ephemeral artwork for the whole week.
