Join us in an engaging discussion on screen based art with exhibiting artist Kate Murphy and Rachel Kent.

Kate Murphy’s latest work, The note, was conceived when she read a distant relative's suicide letter. Murphy asked composer Basil Hogios to develop a musical composition based on every word written in this letter. The result is a single-channel video installation, encompassing the quadraphonic sound of Hogios’ musical composition and performed by a mezzo-soprano to an empty theatre.

Rachel Kent is the Senior Curator, Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney. She has presented exhibitions in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and the USA. She speaks and publishes widely on contemporary art and has curated the exhibition 'Rising Tide' at the MCA San Diego, California, in which Kate Murphy's work featured.
