Artist Statement:


    The crickets in Suzumushi have abandoned audible communications, instead their radio frequency calls spread like memes through the swarm, appearing as text displayed on LED screen within each cricket. Kuuki is an art, design, and media production collective directed by Gavin Sade and Priscilla Bracks. Priscilla and Gavin have been working collaboratively
    since 2005. Their interactive media works have been exhibited in Australia and internationallyWork produced by Kuuki explores contemporary life, interpersonal relationships, and humanity’s relationship with the environment and other non-human species.  This work arises from ‘post-environmental’ politics in that it considers the cultural and anthropocentric construction of nature that inhibits our ability to develop deeper relationships with ‘nature’ and take meaningful steps towards protecting it.
