Work info:

A magnetisation is taking place right through us. If we listen the portal stays open. The Little Instrument brings forth voices that are one and many. We need to re-dedicate our atoms. Lotus Blossom comes from the inner worlds of Venus, she is pure light. Artuna calls to us. There are warnings. Arthur Conan Doyle is working for us on the other side.

Artist duo Sonia Leber and David Chesworth will present a new performance, featuring sound collected from over 90 hours of actuality séance tapes recorded by a family in Auckland and Australia, between 1958 and 1972.
