SKIN QUARTET

‘An exquisite gem…’ RealTime, Dec 03

‘Young’s strongest theatrical collaboration to date.’ The Age, 15/9/03

Skin quartet is a multimedia work for string quartet accompanied by projections by Louisa Bufardeci.

Drawing from the relentless lists of ethnicities, populations and life expectancies recorded in the CIA Factbook, Luisa Bufardeci and David Young compose a series of panoramic micro-landscapes of skin employing digital and acoustic instruments. First performed at the Anna Schwartz Gallery for the 2003 Melbourne Festival.
