What has 90s rave culture got to offer the anxious 2020s? Back in the mid-90s Nelson-based artist Josephine Cachemaille was cofounder and general manager of The Gathering, described as “New Zealand’s most transformative, influential and downright legendary music festival”.
Cachemaille has reunited with two artist friends, Eve Armstrong and Gabby O’Connor to bring back the dance party as an art project at Wellington’s Enjoy Gallery.
On top of regular DJ sets, the gallery space is filled with 90s dayglo and soft props, exploring the rave’s messages of optimism and sharing through a sensory and visual language.
Everybody SoundSystem finishes with an all-age all-day party on September 10.
