Closing Soon: Working Memory 2026 EOI
Applications Close 31/7/25. Working Memory program of experimental performance works presented by Inner West Council at the 25th Biennale of Sydney at White Bay Power Station in 2026.
Embedded in the walls of White Bay Power station is the labour of those who brought it to life, and those who kept the lights on in Sydney. The thousands of workers contributed more than bricks, mortar and coal to the building. They brought energy, connection and care with one another.
Working Memory is a dynamic program of experimental performance works presented by Inner West Council at the 25th Biennale of Sydney, Rememory, at White Bay Power Station in April 2026.
Inner West Council are seeking applications from artists with a performance-based practice to respond to the themes of Working Memory, Rememory and the site itself. Artists are invited to interpret the themes in the broadest sense: the collective generation of energy and momentum, the act of creation as labour, or the traces of workers’ histories. We are seeking bold, ambitious works which will captivate audiences.
The program is open to artists, artist collectives and curators looking to present new performance works including theatre, performance, movement, dance, circus, music, and experimental sound.
Applications close 31 July, 2025 at 4pm.
