Immerse yourself in a live soundscape by Primavera 2024 artist Chun Yin Rainbow Chan (陳雋然), created to accompany her new work on display, Long Distance Call 長途電話.
Performed in-gallery, Chan tenderly investigates memory and migration through electronics, vocals and the saxophone. Weaving together deeply personal tales of love and loss, experience catchy melodies with off-kilter beats, crafted from field recordings and found sounds.
Capacity is limited, book your space.

Chun Yin Rainbow Chan (陳雋然)
Chun Yin Rainbow Chan (陳雋然) is an interdisciplinary artist, singer and music producer based in Naarm/Melbourne. Her work bridges contemporary visual art with a background in popular music, exploring themes of cultural representation, (mis)translation and matrilineal histories. Chan creates immersive installations that combine silk paintings, traditional weaving, sound and performance. Central to her recent projects is the revitalisation of women’s folk songs from the Weitou people, Hong Kong’s original settlers. Reflecting her deep ancestral ties to Weitou women, Chan’s works contemplate the connection between memory, love and loss. In 2024, her work was commissioned for the Yokohama Triennale in Japan. She has exhibited nationally and internationally at Firstdraft Gallery, Artspace, 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art and I-Project Space, Beijing.
