Waters’ Witness is based on Tarek Atoui’s ongoing project documenting the acoustic identities of port cities that are deeply connected to their harbours. Connecting docks and waterfronts from Athens to Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Beirut, Porto, Istanbul and now Sydney, Waters’ Witness is an immersive sonic landscape that is reimagined in a different format for each presentation.

Live performances by Atoui and guests are programmed within the exhibition, together with a series of sound-based educational workshops.
