| Description | Acclaimed British performance and installation artist Sue Austin is pushing the boundaries of what's possible for those living with a disability.
Her work Creating The Spectacle, which has its Southern Hemisphere debut at the Adelaide Film Festival, does just that, as she takes a dive strapped to the world's first self-propelled underwater wheelchair. Austin will take her wheelchair underwater to perform a stunningly beautiful work that will be filmed and projected poolside. The award-winning Restless Dance Theatre will accompany her with a performance as part of the unique event. |
