CICADA - Ritar, Frost, Bradley //
----------------------------------
Cicada is a collaboration between artists Kirsten Bradley, Nick Ritar and Ben Frost who work as a creative team exploring landscapes - - urban, natural, sonic, constructed and imagined. Outputs from such explorations include screen based works, public artworks, interactive installations, live audiovisual performances and projection design for theatre and dance.From 2000-2002 Kirsten was a prominent artist in the Sydney audiovisual performance scene, creating video for and touring nationally with outfits such as the Bird Collective. From 2002 onwards, Kirsten and Nick joined forces to produce a range of audiovisual projects, such as stealthvideo for the 2002 Adelaide Fringe, and travelled and performed throughout Europe. Later that year, Cicada produced and performed in an acclaimed audiovisual event commissioned for Electrofringe 2002, Birdcage, at which they performed with Ben Frost, a musician of uncannily dark beauty.

Following this first collaboration, the three artists all got very excited about working together and since that time have produced a wide range of acclaimed audiovisual works, performances, and installations. Their collaborative work tends to explore our relationship with nature and public space, and has also frequently looked at re-purposing and re-considering everyday urban landscapes as possible spaces for discourse and discovery.

Commissions and exhibitions include Amensal for Luminosity Project, Adelaide 2004 and Re_Squared for Primavera, Sydney 2003.
