<H2>CORAL</H2>
Rekindling Venus
Lynette Wallworth is at that frontier cracking open the fulldome as a space for artists. Her work, Coral is a frameless meditation on the fragility and fascinating beauty of the ocean as well as a call to action.
Lie back in the full dome cinema at Carriageworks and be surrounded by staggeringly beautiful coral reef imagery and high-resolution microscopic footage that is like nothing you’ve ever seen: an alien world in luminous colour that will take your breath away. There’s no narration, no polemics, but the effect on your eyes and ears (music by Max Richter, Gurrumul and Anohni among others) will ignite an outrage at the imminent disappearance of this teeming universe that will burn in you forever.
