UNDERBELLY
Public Arts Lab & Festival
Production, Publicity, Sponsorship, Debut launch
Underbelly: Gallery / Site / Facebook / Underbelly TV
In 2007 Tiani Chillemi and Imogen Semmler took on the task of presenting a program of local, experimental art, performance and music at CarriageWorks in Sydney. From July 3 - 14, 2007 over 100 of Sydney's fringe artists were brought together for a ten-day public-access artist residency, finishing with a one day music and arts festival which sold out. A social experiment of sorts, the Underbelly Public Arts Lab was about creating space for Sydney artists to collaborate, exchange, rehearse and cross-pollinate in a communal environment, whilst inviting the public to witness and engage in this process first hand.
