About Greyspace

Established in 2004 by Keith Deverell, Greyspace is the arts studio of Sue McCauley and Keith Deverell. They produce installation works, sound and image performances, and collaborative community-based projects, In their work together, they explore forms of networked video, installation, and collaboration. Over three years they have produced, curated and performed in three sound and image performance programs titled Intermission. In 2008 and 2009 Intermission was produced as a special project of the Melbourne International Film Festival. It featured national and international sound/image/performance artists

Greyspace is currently working on a new work called The Hawker's Song. The project is a cross-cultural collaboration and exhibition between two Australian artists - Sue McCauley and Keith Deverell and two Cambodian artists - Srey Bandol and Meas Sokhorn. 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 street hawkers who make their living selling food, vegetables and other goods in the streets of the city.

The exhibitions that are the outcome of the collaboration will be exhibited in The Melbourne International Arts Festival visual arts program in October 2010. see http://www.melbournefestival.com.au/program/visual_arts. The project will also be exhibited at JavaArts Gallery Phnom Penh and Phare Art School in Battembang in September 2010. The Hawker's Song project is a co-producer between JavaArts (Phnom Penh Cambodia) and Greyspace, (Melbourne Australia).

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.
