Portal reopening is a sapphic sci-fi soundtrack for the exploration of emotive and sensory internal landscapes. Infinite hours, infinite timelines, trapped between worlds, searching for forgotten fragments of the past, to weave into a map for the future.

Slippery Brain is an experimental music project from artist Lia Steele. Her previous art projects include, large-scale naturalistic headshot portraits printed on weatherproof canvas installed amongst the gardens at the Abbotsford Convent, an artist book, and solo and group exhibitions. Her artist book, Eden, is held in public collections at the Jeu de Paume in Paris, Foam Fotografie Gallerie in Amsterdam and The National Portrait Gallery in Canberra. She was a finalist in the 2011 National Photographic Portrait Prize and her work was selected for exhibition at the 2012 FotoFreo Festival.

"I love it. I had it playing as the sun flooded my home, windows breezin', kids playing outside, nuts toastin', pumpkin' roastin, in the zonnnnnnnneeeee"

"I feel instantly transported to a tender, sun soaked moment in the garden, a secret sensory world of scents, textures, the warmth of the sun and the beauty of flowers."
