Kaldor Public Art Projects and Carriageworks announce Project 34 by Asad Raza

Kaldor Public Art Projects and Carriageworks today announced Asad Raza will create Kaldor Public Art Project 34, a new work presented free to the public from 3 until 19 May 2019. The project represents the first time the New York-based artist has presented his work in Australia.

Raza’s project will take place in the Clothing Store building on the Carriageworks site in Eveleigh, Sydney.

Raza’s project, developed in consultation with biologists and environmental scientists, will comprise an installation with organic elements that will mediate interactions in the space, setting the scene for collaborations, rituals, and conversations.

As part of the project, Raza will invite a number of Australian artists to develop interventions of their own within the project space. Focusing on dialogue and collaboration, these artist interventions may take the form of installations, performances or experiments, reflecting an exchange with each individual artist.

The exhibition will evolve and change throughout its duration. A dedicated group of interlocutors will inhabit and take care of the space, as well as interact with visitors as they navigate the conditions of the work.
