PACT Underground: GENERATOR
Event description
Join us for the second edition of PACT Underground 2025!
PACT Underground: GENERATOR has been curated by Theo Carroll and Milo McLaughlin, in collaboration with our brilliant BOH technicians Anwyn Brook Evans, Juan Guillermo Robayo Gómez, Ró Sín and, Sweet Boy Sonnet.
The afternoon will bring together DJs, performance, and installation work that highlights the creative energy of the PACT team. For the first time, Underground will take place almost entirely in the courtyard and shed - we wanted to give our resident generator their moment. Ticket sales from PACT Underground go entirely to the artists, so come along and support some awesome local talent! BBQ on the deck will be kicking throughout the event.

Juan Guillermo Robayo Gómez presents Ashbodies
Ashbodies is an installation work in the PACT Gallery. The sensitivity of light appears in the kiss between celluloid and the fire of two bodies. Visual poems about the body — thoughts that shape it, the body as a site of thought, and the ashes left behind after the body is touched by reflection.
Sweet Boy Sonnet presents her first piece of performance art, "In my bedroom". The work is a voyeuristic exhibition of someone privately playing music and wallowing in their bedroom. When you are alone you act differently, and this work is a cathartic look into what pain looks like for us when no one is watching. The work is split between a bedroom and a projector. It juxtaposes the flashy performance that is happening in the performer's head with the intimate and anti-climactic viewing of that same bedroom devoid of the music and closeup camera. It is important to wallow sometimes, and be an absolute wreck.
Ró Sín presents … to be announced soon!
