Inflation Situation (2019) was a one-hour durational performance developed and performed by Myfanwy Hunter (sound) and Jonathan Sinatra (movement) for house-body, a Tony Yap and Takashi Takiguchi of Impermanence Productions, presented at Siteworks as part of Melbourne's MAP Festival.
Set within a contained room, the performance explored amplified quietude, deflating skins, and disrupted material usage, moving through cycles of inflation, deflation, rise and fall. Hunter and Sinatra worked with the political, physical, and phenomenological dimensions of space—examining mass, movement, economy, and bodily presence. Inflation Situation asked: in a world of conflated lives and inflated feeds, where will the rest of us rest?
