World Premiere

Q&A: Kenta McGrath, Joseph London

WA directors Kenta McGrath and Joseph London return with SUNLIGHT: YES, an exploration of WA based bio-artists Symbiotica’s ‘Sunlight, Soil & Shit (De)Cycle’  – Award of Distinction in the Artificial Intelligence & Life Art category of Prix Ars Electronica 2023 –  exhibition which transpired in Fremantle in February 2022. 

Exploring new and emergent technologies and their role in food production, the exhibition / performance / symposium was, like all of Symbiotica’s work, ground breaking. 

McGrath (who has previously documented WA group Decibel and experimental musicians Chris Coblis, Predrag Delibasich and Stina Thomas in No Encore and Three Hams In A Can) and London (The Beloved) were there to document, contextualise and critique the event, SUNLIGHT: YES is the result.  

Alongside members of Symbiotica, directors McGrath and London will discuss the film following the screening. 

Please note ticket holders for this screening can also attend the closing night party on showing a ticket stub.
