Exploring the individual artists’ response to indigenous time, disabled time, and everything inbetween, this 14-minute digital work will screen continuously across the day and will be available online for one week across Auckland Live and Touch Compass’ websites.
Artists Tusiata Avia, Grace Taylor, Amy Blinkhorne, thecornycousin, Forest V Kapo, AJ FATA, AM Kanngieser, and Touch Compass have come together to offer sound installations, digital poetry, and stop motion animations with some artists trying to beat the clock, break or bend time, and create moments of stillness. This work celebrates the connections between different identities and encourages new understanding of the body as we recognise International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
