PICA
As part of a three-week residency at PICA, Joshua Pether, Janine Oxenham and Helah Milroy revisit their durational performance ritual The Reckoning, created in 2021 through a creative development at PICA.

The development involved the performers ‘reckoning’ with themselves and geographical sites of significance to First Nations people. Pether, Oxenham and Milroy revisit their performance methodology, extending the work to a 16-hour durational performance. Workshops […]
