TERRAIN is an art installation.
TERRAIN is a landscape.
TERRAIN is a temporary new world.
What do we dream of as a space for performance? What else could it be?
TERRAIN is Homegrown Festival’s space of transformation. We take over a room and turn it into a landscape, an environment you can touch, rest and dream within.
TERRAIN is an immersive art installation and atmospheric landscape designed to host boundary pushing artists, new theatre, reflections on history and conversations between us and you.
Lose yourself in TERRAIN as you explore the environment at your own pace. Throughout the festival, TERRAIN will also host a variety of events, each bringing new life to the space.
In our times of scarcity TERRAIN is a space of abundance, where we can imagine what a future landscape for artists and audiences might look like.
