SHOW OF THE WEEK

people in glass houses...
The ladies of HML are always intrigued by a little cross pollination when it comes to craft. Of course combining it with music is not unusual but even we were impressed with the collaboration between glass artist Elaine Miles and percussionist/composer Eugene Ughetti with their work Intermezzo now on display at the Fracture gallery at Fed Square
The Fracture gallery is that weird no persons land between the two walls as you enter to get to the NGV. We know it's hard to invisage a time when we'd be organised to go into to see the peformance at 9.15 on Thurs Fri or Sat of this and next week...
that being said we were intrigued by what seemed an endless amount (1400 in actual fact) of permutations of tradional instruments created out of a non traditional medium. We'd would love to know how it all sounds....
As an installation it is mysterious and curious. We were desperate to slip in between those walls to have a play..
we'll have to wait til the end of the week to really experience the full effect of The Glass Percussion Project.
