Event Duration: 300 minutes
You are invited to visit one of the great mysteries Down Under. Come and gaze at the wonders that lie deep within the abyss and discover the secrets hidden for centuries in The Gulf of Carpet Area. The region has been explored and charted, exposing the ever-changing substances that lie beneath our feet. Be careful of solid ground.
The Gulf of Carpet area is a new work commissioned by Bella Union for the Melbourne Fringe Festival. This piece will reconsider and transform the Trades Hall Victoria Street wing, bringing to life the spaces we share when mingling and waiting patiently for the show to begin…
