In the Night Garden

For a third year, In the Night Garden is taking the laneway intersection behind St Peter's Tortuga Studios and filling it with luminescent art of all descriptions. This year, they're also adding writers to the mix.

Overview

Tortuga Studio’s In the Night Garden has been a strong mark on our cultural calendar across its brief existence. From a promising 2011 debut, to an enthusiastic 2012 follow-up, it has taken the laneway intersection behind St Peter’s Tortuga Studios and filled it with luminescent art of all descriptions.

The night has featured realtime projection, heads aglow, a mushroom-like tree of lamps, live binding and live painting. This year, Tortuga is adding writers to the mix. Visitors will be able to settle into an overlapping mashup of writers’ workspace, as a single desk switches faces from one set of writers to the next. The word work will be curated by Zoe Adler Bishop, with local wordsmiths Tabula Rasa (long-time, critical denizens of the Sydney arts scene and fresh off a recent relaunch) adding their keyboard pounding power into the back-lane lineup.
