MPavilion Melbourne

Lost Rocks is a slow-publishing artwork by A Published Event. It’s a library of 43 books, by 46 contemporary artists and writers who’ve each immersed themselves in a seam of mineralogical, metaphysical and metallurgical storytelling. Lost Rocks (2025): End of an Era is ten years in the making, and it finally brings Lost Rocks to life at MPavilion, Queen Victoria Gardens. It will include readings, panel discussions and performances by authors and artists who have written books in the Lost Rocks series, followed by distribution of Lost Rocks ‘fictiōnellas’ to audience. Readers include Justy Phillips, Margaret Woodward, Lyndal Jones, Trent Walter, Katie Stackhouse, Sarah Jones, Polly Stanton, Wendy Morrow, Mary Scott, Julie Gough, Jerry de Gryse, as well as audio/visual practitioner Christopher Henschke, who’ll be performing a live sound work with his reading. Join these artists, writers and researchers as they celebrate geologies of felt experience and more-than-human connection.
