Terra Culture by Bianca Tainsh
Terra Culture is an exploration of terra-biomes — symbiotic bodies of flora and microfauna, intimately connected by underground fungal networks. Audiences will encounter an immersive space, where interaction with living sculptures invites human entanglement in the complex agency and culture of other natural beings. The exhibition will also provoke a visceral self-identification, uncovering the human state as its own multi-species biome. Over two years, this project has evolved through collaborations with ecologists and computing researchers in conjunction with sculptors and fabricators, ultimately leading Tainsh to create portals connecting us with more-than-human intelligence. Metro Arts is proudly supported by Brisbane City Council. For more information on Metro Arts and this exhibit, please visit the Metro Arts website.

Lord Mayor's City Hall Concerts - BRISBANE FESTIVAL - The Telephone
Brisbane City Council proudly presents a special series of Lord Mayor’s City Hall Concerts for Brisbane Festival. A pocket-sized rom-com opera. Sparkling soprano Katie Stenzel and characterful baritone Jon Maskell are bringing the laughs and the romance alongside virtuoso pianist Alex Raineri. The program begins with highlights of great American opera, with arias by Douglas Moore, Leonard Bernstein, and more, before moving on to the main event: Italian-American composer Gian Carlo Menotti’s chamber opera — The Telephone. Sung in English, this pocket-sized rom-com opera follows Lucy, Ben, and the ever-present Telephone coming between them. It's a hilarious commentary on navigating technology in relationships — but who will end up as the third wheel? This Lord Mayor's City Hall Concert is produced by Brisbane Festival.

Pelléas et Mélisande (Opera)
Step into a world of shadows, secrets, and forbidden desires with Debussy's Pelléas et Mélisande. Set in a mysterious, dreamlike kingdom, this opera presents an intricate portrait of human fragility and unspoken truths. When Prince Golaud discovers the enigmatic Mélisande lost in the forest, her presence begins to unravel the balance of his world.
