installations

Want to create a sense of space? To engage and connect with people, patrons or the public, in poetic ways?

Examples

Artwork installations

artworks such as Child Protection. Act are available for display. (with(in)side) out is available for audio installation, soft ground for audio video installation. leaving can be created as a site-specific, durational performative installation – each leaf is handprinted with ‘everything is transient’, embracing themes of change and letting go.

Chalk installations

Chalk poems or lines of poems can be marked in public or private space. Make your event speak out onto the street. Guide patrons into your venue with a talking point. Temporal and impermanent.

Intimate installations

What is a poetic fortune? Imagine a fortune cookie made love to a cup of coffee. These intimate installations delivered individually under mugs provide cafe patrons with a sip of the unexpected. Lines of poetry from Indigo’s work provide a personal interaction that patrons can muse on and keep.

Transgressive yet hypnotic.
