Art works made for festivals have to be pretty attention-grabbing to rise above the general clamour of sound, food, booze and big audiences. Does this mean that these art works have to be big, bright, loud and spectacular or is there room for quieter, more contemplative work at these events? We speak to Dark Mofo Creative Director Leigh Carmichael, artist Michaela Gleave, and artist, producer and SITUATE provocateur Paul Gazzola.

In this episode you will hear sound from A Galaxy of Suns by Michaela Gleave, produced for Dark Mofo 2016 with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, and Fort Evil by Andrew Harper, produced for BRAINSTORM at the Tasmanian College of the Arts for Dark Mofo 2016.
