SUMMARY:Dialog Lensa #6: 'Sitting with the Sea' // Special Screening and Performance @ Tanks Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:NorthSite Contemporary Arts and Padepokan Seni Bagong Kussudiardja (PSBK) present a special screening of Siting with the Sea (Dialog Lensa #6) — an immersive experience in image and live sound. \nPhotographer Vickram Sombu (Photographer and filmmaker from Kupang\, East Nusa Tenggara) shares images created during his time with the community of Lamalera in East Nusa Tenggara\, tracing their profound connection to Mother Sea (Ina Lefa). Developed with Yogyakarta-based photographer and curator Kurniadi Widodo\, the work journeys across oceans from Lamelera to Yogyakarta to Gimuy/Cairns\, carrying stories of culture\, survival\, and reverence. \nAustralian mulitdiscipinary artists Melania Jack and Patty Preece (The Ironing Maidens) build upon Sombu’s photography to create a live\, immersive soundscape that dissolves the boundaries between stage\, performer\, and audience.  Sound and light moves through the space\, inviting multiple perspectives and shared presence. \nPresented at the Tanks Arts Centre by NorthSite in April 2026\, this event celebrates an ongoing cross-cultural exchange between Far North Queensland and Yogyakarta.  \nSit together. Absorb the images. Listen deeply. Experience a story that invites empathy\, connection\, and community. After the performance\, join the artists for a discussion exploring the development of the work and the meanings it holds for us as international audiences.
