About Greyspace

Greyspace is the arts studio of Sue McCauley and Keith Deverell. Together they produce installation works, audio visual performances, and collaborative community-based projects.

Greyspace is currently working on a new work called The Hawkers' Song. It will be shown in the visual arts program of the Melbourne International Arts Festival in October 2010. The project's Co-producer is JavaArts in Cambodia.

The project is a cross-cultural collaboration and exhibition between two Australian and two Cambodian artists. We are making a series of public art projections and soundscapes about the changing nature of street commerce and the effect this change has on the cultures of communities. The theme was suggested by one of the Cambodian artists, Meas Sorkhorn who observed how the rapid development of Phnom Penh after the end of the civil war was having a dramatic effect on the people who made their living selling food, vegetables and other goods from bicycle carts they rode or pulled around the streets of the city.

The exhibitions that are the outcome of the collaboration will be shown in Phnom Penh in September 2010. It is to be installed at Signal in Melbourne city and in various locations in Springvale.

Greyspace has also recently completed a residency at The Bundanon Trust, the gift of Arthur Boyd. During this residency Greyspace, with represented artists, SONE, produced an audio visual work responding to the immediate environment of Bundanon.

In 2009, Greyspace created Rear Window, a Laneways Commission for the City of Melbourne. Also in 2009, Greyspace produced a post-punk audio-visual performance program for the Mlebourne International Film Festival. In 2008, Greyspace was commissioned to produce Intermission to critical acclaim at the Melbourne International Film Festival.
