MONO 44 welcomes two international sound artists to the IMA. Eiko Ishibashi is a Japanese composer and musician whose work sprawls across divergent sonic fields. Deeply rooted in a sense of melody and harmony, her solo works are a mesh of textured layers that intertwine to create unexpected and constantly deepening states. Her most recent work was creating the soundtrack for the acclaimed film ‘Drive My Car’ by director Ryusuke Hamaguchi.

Eiko is joined by Melbourne-born, Tokyo-based Joe Talia. In a solo capacity, Talia uses drums and electronics to generate states of intensely textured rhythm. His skills as an improvisor have seen him partner with many ensembles and players including long term partnerships with artists including Oren Ambarchi.

Doors at 6.30pm for a 7pm start:
7:00pm Joe Talia
8:00pm Eiko Ishibashi
