Walyalup/Fremantle-based artist Bruno Booth will present his new work, Dead Ends and Detours at Perth’s Cultural Centre amphitheatre, PICA from 17-19 March. An interactive sculptural installation that challenges visitors (aged 11 and above) to race against the clock in a wheelchair, Booth refers to the work as ‘the best named project that’s been in development’ because, like its title, its had so many dead ends and detours since the initial conception.
Dead Ends and Detours follows from the ideas of Booth’s 2019 work, Hostile Infrastructure, which was presented at Melbourne’s Testing Grounds and invited participants to manoeuvre through a tunnel in a wheelchair as the space became increasingly confined.
