In 1988, celebrated Aussie artist Helen Eager had a residency at New York's Greene St. Studios, and it was here her work began the journey into the abstract realm. This metamorphosis — from drawings of interiors to experiments in shape and colour — will be represented on the MCA's façade through New York Sunday. The animated art projection showcases the subtle changes in her work over time, culminating in the premiere of her latest piece.

For the work, Eager has collaborated with celebrated electro-pop musician Paul Mac, who has created original compositions to complement this exploration of light, visuals and sound.
