Full fathom fifty : The Field Revisited


Five decades deep, The Field was staged at the new National Gallery of Victoria flagship in St Kilda Road, Melbourne.

Now, the pilgrim and tourist TARists would return. 
Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Ding-dong.
Hark! now I hear them,
-  ding-dong, bell.
   Shakespeare, The Tempest
