Angela Costi

Wang Zheng-Ting, Sheng player, Angela Costi, poet, and Christian Leavesley, dramaturg, are the Australian-based creators who will be collaborating with Stringraphy Ensemble, sound installation performers, who are based in Japan.

Stringraphy Ensemble

Stringraphy Ensemble has developed an international reputation for their unique music and dance installation, which uses silk threads and paper cups to create orchestral sound.

The artists seek not only to blend and fuse music, text, voice and movement, but also their combined languages, which are Mandarin, Japanese, Cypriot-Greek and English.

Keiko Aoki of Global Japan Network, in partnership with MAV, is managing this rare international collaboration, thanks to funding received by the Australia Council for the Arts, Vic Arts (International) and City of Melbourne - CultureLab.
