Step into the studio for a live experience at Powerhouse Arts. Your workspace is waiting.
You enter alone.
No audience. Just a series of rooms and what’s inside them. There are tools and safety goggles. There are instructions.
How things come apart and how they fall together is yours to explore. Powerhouse Arts is a home for artists, builders, and creative risk-takers. Including you.
We’ll hand you the hammer. You take it from there.
Brussels-based artist Kate McIntosh—working across the boundaries of performance, theatre, and installation—once again crafts an experience steeped in meaning yet limitless in possibilities.
BELGIUM / AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND

About the Artist
Kate McIntosh (1974, Aotearoa New Zealand) is a Brussels-based artist whose works often focus on the physicality of both performer and audience, the manipulation of objects and materials, and the development of direct relations with and between audience members. Kate's practice is guided by her ongoing fascinations with the misuse of objects, playfulness with the public, a love of theatrical images and an off-beat humor.
