Sea of Light at Parramatta Town Hall

OUR REVIEW OF SEA OF LIGHT IN 2022 AT THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL MARITIME MUSEUM HERE.

Embark on a journey of light and imagination in this FREE illuminating interactive installation by Patch Theatre. With a UV torch as your paintbrush, paint and stencil your own voyage and steer ships that leave glowing paths of light in their wake. Immerse yourself in the wonders of the ocean as you create your own nautical soundtrack, control colour and light, and discover sea creatures in a magical pond.

As you explore Sea of Light, artworks by Contemporary Aboriginal Visual Artist Elizabeth Close are painted in light across the sea floor. These paintings speak to the connection between land and sea, the earth and waterways and are informed by the diversity of the Australian landscape, reflecting the deep relationship that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have with Country. 

Sea of Light brings together magical light and a gentle soundscape to create a unique adventure for the whole family.
