ABOUT MITCH ELLIOTT

Influenced by the soundtracks of Ben Frost and Hans Zimmer, as well drone, industrial, and deathcore artists, Elliott’s work explores beauty and brutality, minimalism and maximalism.

Following an epic end of year tour through Japan, China and Hong Kong, Sydney-based musician Mitch Elliott brings his immersive live show to The Lock Up, as part of a four-act noise bill from local and Eora/Sydney artists. Described as “crushing, therapeutic music,” Elliott’s performances are instinctive, unpredictable, and impossible to experience the same way twice. For this special show, Elliott abandons all previous material to present a new exploratory work titled ‘all i ask is that you step with me into the boundlessness’.

This is a work in progress to be recorded on the night; documented as it moves closer to completion with each performance.

ABOUT MARA

Mara is a composer and curator based in Eora Sydney. She plays the viola and collaborates with her laptop to create live performances and recorded pieces for film, dance, and gallery spaces. Her work is led by the shifts of perspective and interaction of rhythms and beings within environments. Mara’s most recent album At Every Corner “is a testament to her deep connection to time, place and community, as well as her skill in transforming everyday sounds into immersive auditory constructs.”

In 2019 she graduated from RMIT with a Bachelor of Design (Digital Media) and went on to attend LungA School (Seyðisfjörður, IS) in 2020. Since then she has curated three major exhibitions: Cycles (2021, Sheffer); Gathering Geographies(2022, Darren Knight Gallery); and Building the Palace (2023, Blindside). Mara hosts The Bridge on fbi.radio in Eora Sydney and is a resident on Fade Radio with her program Absorbed Terrain. She currently works with the Powerhouse Museum as an audio producer and researcher.
