From June 9 to 13, Australia’s leading cross-disciplinary creative lab, ArtsiX, returns to Walyalup/Fremantle in 2025, uniting 20 groundbreaking artists from across Australia in five-day hub to produce a daring and immersive multi-media exhibition on Friday June 13 that will become ArtsiX: VESSELS.
The handpicked cohort of artists, musicians, technologists, and visual storytellers will collaborate in supergroups, pushing creative boundaries and forging new hybrid works at the intersection of sound, sight, and code. The culmination is a one-night-only VIP exhibition at Artsource Fremantle.
At ArtsiX: VESSELS on June 13, audiences will witness world-first collaborative artworks, augmented reality experiences, and live performances from the artists themselves that include bold talents such as the fearless ‘trash queen’ of Melbourne fusing punk and theatrical pop Queenie, the award-winning environmental visionary and painter Bec Juniper, immersive projection and digital motion artists 4th Perspective, acclaimed producer and sonic craftsman Elliot Smith from Sundown Studios, Jae Laffer (The Panics).
A limited number of tickets are on sale to the public for the event which runs 5.30pm to 8.30pm, that include a collectible, first-edition artwork to take home, refreshments, and the chance to mingle with the creatives and VIP guests. Tickets are $60 + booking fee through www.bit.ly/ArtsiX25. Limited edition pieces will also be available for purchase on the night, exclusively for ticket holders.
Following the launch, ArtsiX: VESSELS will be on show at Artsource for two days only across the weekend of June 14 and 15, from 11.00am each day, open to the public free of charge.
The ArtsiX debut exhibition in 2023 revealed the endless possibilities of combining art and technology, and vast potential of the ArtsiX concept. Founded by ARIA-winning musician Kav Temperley (Eskimo Joe) and producer/creative director Beth Temperley (Women in Tech 2024 winner in Digital Creativity & Game Tech), alongside visual storyteller Nate Hill (acclaimed digital artist and freelance photographer) and tech innovator Pete Argent (RMIT Melbourne) the four will guide the 2025 artist groups to curate their second exhibition. ArtsiX: VESSELS will be a space where innovation meets emotion, and experimentation becomes performance.
