EVENT DETAILS:

This pop-up exhibition will be a unique one-day (afternoon/evening) event taking place from 3pm - 9.30pm on Sunday the 26th of October 2025, in the upstairs 'Chapel' of the Take Care Studio (Brunswick East).

We invite all of our (18+) friends in the wider community of artists and art-lovers to be present for a unique blend of creative artistry in respect of the 'Levitation' series. Along with a wide collection of works from Psyalux, this event will present a never before seen amalgamation of artistry, which will enhance an already unforgettable performance by the always mezmerising rope-chemistry of Barefoot Juliette & Hunny.

After some opening remarks at 3.30pm/ 3.45pm, there will be a spread of light snacks & refreshments (grazing nibbles and drinks (juice & wine) to accompany a showcase of local artistry (visual & performative) across the afternoon & early evening. Engage, observe, converse, and enjoy the lovely space and ambience upstairs among other explorers, creatives and like-minded aficionados - and be sure not to miss the main event performance piece commencing at 8pm!

As an artist, it's a gift to be able to offer something truly unique to the wider community who have continued to inspire my own practice... so in advance I offer a warm 'thank you' to all of our guests and contributors for actively helping to build and grow these 'third-spaces' for the arts community to bring people together :)

EXHIBITION SYNOPSIS:

This series is an aesthetic love-letter to the rope community, to it's ever inspiring practitioners & the intricate beauty woven through their craft. This collection tries to capture the external and internal 'gravity' of experience felt by those explore the psychological & corporeal substance of this niche. In observing the variously ephemeral moments of beauty, suffering & connectedness explored in this practice, Psyalux offers the 'Levitation' series as an exploration of mindful sensualism and the journey of liberation through bondage. This collection draws on a deep appreciation for the otherworldly beauty of suspension-play aesthetics, and the bedrock of trust that allows a uniquely visceral and mental connectedness. This series inteprets such artistry as a demonstration of 'force' being imposed & absorbed in synchronicity, finding an interdependent thread of harmony by vastly divergent paths.

Barefoot Juliette is a shibari performer and instructor with a mesmerising energy and a sharp edge. Known for her ruthless yet caring rope style, she slowly draws her partner into a world where the lines between pleasure and pain remain forever blurred. And you are invited. (@barefoot_juliette)

Hunny is drawn to rope like a moth to a flame. Experience their raw vulnerability, bold expression and fearlessness as they transform every tie into a dance of tension and trust. With every breath, they invite you to witness the art of bound freedom. (@lil_nawa_puppy)
