Curated by Kaspar Schmidt Mumm, Pressurised Whisper Orchestra is an event involving two visual artists – John Davis and Evelyn Roth – and two music collectives – The Quirkestra and Zemzemeh زمزمه. Combined, the event will traverse illustration, orchestral jams, whispered bellows of sound and vibrant inflatable sculptures.

Offbeat is a series of live events curated by local contemporary artists who share an interest in performance, community, music, comedy and dance. Presented across the year in ACE’s front room, each artist-as-curator brings their own model for engaging with liveness and togetherness.
