Push your way into the experiential extreme of an ‘impossible space’ – where physical pressure, light and sound combine to create a surreal accumulation of sensations.

Creators Denis Beaubois, William McClure and Jeff Stein were members of Sydney’s Gravity Feed Ensemble – an architectural performance-theatre which employed large sets to create potent, subversive and densely atmospheric events. Impasse is a tangible rendering and intensification of space, where space becomes substance, restricting both the visitor’s field of vision and their capacity to move.

Impasse creates a unique experience of ‘space’ as you struggle to carve out a path with your body. Its unique fusion of physical impression and surprising sounds makes for an extraordinary, densely- packed journey that will change the way you see, feel and hear the world!
