Economy

Economy

At each moment a battle is being planned, contested or decided – most remain anonymous while others gain enormous significance due to their impact on global relations. Economy is an installation-based exhibition that brings together nine West Australian artists to explore the theme of efficiency and its relevance in how we deal with conflict. Using their adept skills of analysis and enquiry, the participating artists will use action, strategy and movement to present responses that are incisive, well considered and tactically efficient. Through dance, performance and object-based installation, they suggest that a moderate approach to any given situation may often produce the most effective outcomes.
