Wrong Solo is a collaborative performance art duo comprising Sydney-based performer Brian Fuata and conceptual artist Agatha Gothe-Snape. Utilising stylistic sets, basic architectural structures, choreographed movement, textual and audio-visual components, their performative and discursive activities explore interpersonal and spatio-emotional exchanges around art and the context in which it is displayed.
Their collaborative and individual practices employ a diverse range of media and methodologies that act as a conduit for the contexts of physical and non-physical spaces: from dance theatres, galleries, museums and public spaces to PowerPoint slides, text messages and visual scores.
