“The ceilings are always really high at the airport”
Ari Angkasa
21 Feb → 21 Feb 2026
Performance
Join artist-in-residence Ari Angkasa for a performance to mark the end point of her residency with West Space.
Saturday 21 February, 3.30 → 5pm
The ceilings are always really high at the airport forms part of Angkasa's ongoing series of performance works interrogating posthuman technologies to envision alternative systems of filmmaking and performance art.
Beginning at West Space and moving through Collingwood Yards, Angkasa explores the limits of her voice through an abstraction of the microphone performances that have characterised her practice.
This performance is presented as part of the Melbourne Art Fair 2026. The West Space Studio is generously supported by Melissa Loughnan & Simon Griffiths.
