The Open Road – Kate Moore

During the opening of lure allure illusion,  Kate Moore will roam around the gallery scratching out a never-ending tune ‘Lyre’, on her old phonoviolin. The seven notes of the hypnotic tune recall a long gone era of wanderers along The Open Road. A continuous journey carrying no material burdens, the minstrel’s path holds no objects or possessions to tie one down.

Kate Moore is an Australian composer, performer, musician and artist, who currently resides in the Netherlands whilst undertaking a PhD in Composition at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. As well as composing music, she has worked on numerous international projects with artists, dancers, actors and musicians. Later this year Kate Moore and Kath Fries will be collaborating on a sound and visual art project at the Laughing Waters Artists-in-Residence Program in Victoria.
