dreamthinkspeak has arrived in Australia with its site-responsive piece inspired by the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice which will transform two landmark buildings in the state capitals of Western and South Australia.

Orpheus and Eurydice, one of the greatest of all ancient myths, is about the perils of looking back. The moment he turns his head to see Eurydice slipping back down into The Underworld, Orpheus is locked into a perpetual limbo - yearning for the past, aspiring to an uncertain future, unable to exist in the present. DON’T LOOK BACK is a journey into the past. As you wander through rooms, corridors, hallways and stairwells, you will experience an accumulation of sounds, shadows, whispers, modelled landscapes, musical fragments and fleeting film images, conveying a heightened, dreamlike state that lingers long in the subconscious.

“Take your time, be curious and surrender yourself to an hour of poetic,
transformative theatre” The West Australian on Don’t Look Back
