ANTARCTICA: while you were sleeping opens tonight

ANTARCTICA - while you were sleeping, Military Working Dog Display, Volume Sunday Sessions & More!

OPENS TONIGHT FOR THREE NIGHTS ONLY!

Tonight, our Museum will transform into a life-size Antarctic iceberg for the world premiere of ANTARCTICA: while you were sleeping.

A cinematic collision of nature and architecture on an epic scale, for three nights the Museum’s iconic building will become the canvas for a full-scale 360-degree projection of an Antarctic iceberg.

Visual artist Joseph Michael has collaborated with composer Rhian Sheehan to create an immersive multi-sensory installation that translates the scale and awe of Antarctica. Listen to the ice crack and drip, creak and groan as colossal sections of ice calve off, set to a dramatic sound score.

A free, fully immersive visual and audio experience for an audience of all ages, while you were sleeping is a New Zealand first, and the largest project of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. Bring a blanket and enjoy food from one of the food stalls on-site.

WORLD PREMIERE
FRI 24, SAT 25, SUN 26 MARCH,
8.30PM-11PM, 45-MINUTE LOOP,
MUSEUM EXTERIOR, FREE
