Step into the immersive domestic architecture of Sixty-nine by artist Sidney McMahon with Echoes, Verge’s student sound series ​featuring emerging musicians and sound artists from The Conservatorium of Music and Sydney College of the Arts.

Sixty-nine explores the symbolic and emotional terrain of the number 69 as a cycle of life, death, queerness, and intimacy. Join us for an experience in expansive listening as we tune in to sonic works improvised and created in response to these themes of eroticism, grief and repetition in McMahon’s Sixty-nine.

About Echoes:
Join us as we embark on a listening journey through the Verge Gallery program, tracing the resonances between emerging student artists and established practitioners, across immersive landscapes and expanding planes of perception through deep listening and experimentation with sound.
