Past peer Emily Parsons-Lord on the experimental and emerging arts panel

Practising on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Boon Wurrung peoples of the eastern Kulin Nation, Emily Parsons-Lord’s practice is concerned with air and explosions, materials of the climate crisis that speak to both the invisibility and the spectacle of collapse, and the disorientation that occurs at the confluence of personal and planetary catastrophe. An explosion is a rapid transformation from one state to another. Shifting our thinking to a geological timescale, the rapidity of changes since the Industrial Revolution make it clear that we are currently exploding. Emily’s work investigates the experience of witnessing this expanded unstable moment of multiple simultaneous catastrophes. It slips in register and scale from the sublime to the relatable, and queer.
