The AU ReviewThe energy was electric… a hell of an experience.
Experiential art-pop from a fearless cultural force
‘Kintsugi’: the centuries-old Japanese art of mending ceramics, embracing breakage, repair and imperfection as part of the rich history of an object. Or a life.
Art-pop powerhouse, multimedia artist, groundbreaking activist, Jaguar Jonze is all of these and more. Emerging as one of Australian music’s most important cultural voices in recent years, Jaguar Jonze has blazed new trails when it comes to her visionary blend of art and pop, as featured on her 2022 debut album, Bunny Mode. Named in The Australian’s 100 Cultural Leaders List 2022 and Vogue Australia’s 21 Women of 2021, Jonze parallels her artistry with an iconic tenacity to advocate for dramatic systemic change in the music industry.
In this genre-crossing high art performance, Jaguar Jonze presents a defiant reclamation of her body and artistic voice. Fusing music, film, shibari rope art and contemporary performance, The Art Of Broken Pieces is Jonze’s love letter to music, the untold story of what has carried her to this moment, and her rallying cry for change. Moving between the dangerous and the beautiful, Jonze looks at the intersection of life and art, blending storytelling, her known elevation of provocative visuals, and intimate songs performed live for the very first time.
Performing in The Studio, Sydney Opera House, for one night only, this next Jaguar Jonze statement will be truly unmissable.
