An invigorating and moving performance that celebrates what it means to be First People—the lifeblood of this country.
A moving acrobatic performance linking people, country and culture, where the unseen bonds between the body and the land become beautifully visible.
This award-winning Na Djinang Circus performance explores the ancient connections tying First Nations people together, strong through bloodlines but irreparably damaged through colonisation. Four performers connect with each other physically and spiritually in a display of breathtaking acrobatics scored by avant-garde sound designer Danni Esposito.
Arterial will both excite and move you as the performers celebrate what it means to be First People—the lifeblood of this country. The land is its beating heart.
Duration: 60 minutes, no interval
Age suitability: Suitable for audiences aged 12+ (the work is suitable for all but resonates best with people who have an understanding of colonisation)
Warnings: Performance contains flashing lights and haze and may contain strobe lighting
