DRIFT PRESENTED BY ANTONY HAMILTON PROJECTS IN ASSOCIATION WITH ARTS HOUSE
DRIFT is a poetic musing on a topographical phenomenon; the urban wasteland.
Performed at one of the city's forgotten derelict sites, DRIFT is a ‘drive-in’ performance where the audience views the work from the seats of their cars.
Created by Antony Hamilton, DRIFT imagines vast constructed environments as ancient forsaken monuments to human existence. Monuments that collectively malign the cities of the earth, like some epic catacomb for the industrial age. These colossal artifacts, glorious and tragic, appear dormant, destitute relics of a culture extinguished.
Employing retro technology, sound artist Robin Fox’s austere and spartan noise will be transmitted live through the audience car radio, bringing the distant rumblings of the space outside into the driver's seat.
DRIFT invites us to meditate on the majestic beauty of this remote and hidden world; to gaze out into a haunting, romantic derelict environment, where a fragile human presence is felt.
season runs THURSDAY 24 – SUNDAY 27 MARCH
$75 per car
3 people per car is optimum viewing

Antony Hamilton's new work for the Australian Dance Theatre - RGB.
Antony Hamilton's latest work RGB is a collaboration with designer Paula Levis and composer/video artist Robin Fox and has been commissioned by ADT for the company's annual Ignition season.
RGB is a progression on the Black Series. It introduces white design elements and projected light of red green and blue, the 3 primary colours of light which are able to produce all possible colours depending on how they are combined. These design elements add new textural components to the progress of Hamilton's recent works, and the ongoing theme of visual distillation.
RGB as part of the Ignition program plays at the Space Theatre, Adelaide Festival Centre, and premieres on August 17th running to the 21st.

Chunky Move presents
I LIKE THIS
This November, Chunky Move will present Antony Hamilton and Byron Perry's collaborative new work I Like This.
After six years performing together with companies including Chunky Move, Kage, Lucy Guerin and BalletLab, Byron and Antony have created this new work, the first to premiere under Chunky Move’s Next Move program.
A room of objects wait patiently in stasis for a purpose, a beginning. I Like This tells the story of two men who embark on an unusual creative project; to design an environment, attempt to make sense of it, and begin to control it. A strange documentary about the making of a show, with the two director/choreographers appearing onstage creating the work at the same time as it is being performed. Intimately engaging, 'I Like This' strikes a balance between nuanced sophistication and delightful immaturity. It is an exercise in absurdity, a display of our limited capacity to be able to genuinely communicate to one another, and our inability to control or understand our surroundings.
