Live art exists only while it is being performed, and then it disappears. How do we create an archive of the ephemeral?

Its ephemeral nature means it is transient and impermanent, and cannot be experienced again in precisely the same way.

Key Points: 
  • Its ephemeral nature means it is transient and impermanent, and cannot be experienced again in precisely the same way.
  • How do artists hold on to the works that they make?
  • The show reflects her focus on curating and re-framing interdisciplinary work to address the limited opportunities for recognition of contemporary independent Australian performance.

Meticulous design

    • Marked by a spare, distinctive design, Archiving the Ephemeral is located in the Magdalen Laundry at the Abbotsford Convent.
    • Along one side of the space, 132 brown paper packets are laid out in a continuous line on the floor.
    • An accompanying video depicts Shelton’s meticulous process of burning, piece by piece, her entire performance archive to ash.

A living archive

    • The exhibition includes an opportunity for each of us to become part of the living archive through conversations with two ground-breaking elders of Australia’s performance art scene, Jill Orr and Stelarc.
    • We discuss Kantian notions of time as he tells me about his Re-Wired/Re-Mixed Event for Dismembered Body (2015).
    • The sheer number of pages is overwhelming, and the breadth of audience commentary – joyful, moved, connected, inspired – is breathtaking.

A practice of care

    • Archiving the Ephemeral fosters a practice of care and acknowledgement which extends to the practical ways in which our trajectory through the room and engagement with the artworks is enabled.
    • Typewriters, brown paper, string, awls and aprons are part of the painstaking construction process.
