Description A performance spectacle of haunting beauty, searing images and operatic dementia. Performative mathematics, random acts of violence and irrational slippages from pedestrian routines. Conversations with the collective unconscious via Freud, Jung, Dali, and Breton, with the Lieberstod aria from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde a recurring leitmotif. German operatic constructions of love, death and transfiguration collide with a surreal Australian experience of beauty, pathos and strangeness.
