In 2023, Emily spent 24 nights and days over 6 weeks living in the gallery alone at MONA (Hobart’s Museum of Old and New Art). Emily is heading back into the fray on October 3rd 2024 from Thursday nights – Monday afternoons till November 11th.
You can see the livestream of her time at the museum here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxXQUbteWcBMh2IkcK0fW4cCbSSH6gtpY&feature=shared
You will find livestreams of each day of composition, daily concert performances. Emily records her night time sleep behaviours too, but that’s for her eyes only. It’s all pretty weird…
Emily uses the things that happen during the night….sleep talks, sleep walks, panics, meanderings…. This then becomes fodder for the day’s composition. See below for MONA’s take on what it’s all about.
