softwash’s final live program returns to the riverbank and public parklands for an artist-led afternoon exploring interdependence, place, queering, and multispecies connection. The event features live performance, ephemeral sculpture, and participatory activities.
Contributing artists include Norton Fredericks, Tay Haggarty, Ruby Donohue, Anna Whitaker, Kinly Grey, and Kim Stokes, with a Welcome to Country by Aunty Erica Eurell.
Featured work: PISS TAKE by Tay Haggarty — a series of small, ephemeral water fountains that blur the boundaries between sculpture and performance, looping through themes of failure, leak, and queer time.
