The festival was an opportunity for Emily to perform and experiment with her craft among similar artists and to receive feedback about her performance.
Scheduled to take place from 28 February to 8 March 2020, the festival was cancelled days before it began due to COVID-19’s rapid spread throughout Italy. The cancellation of the festival meant Emily was unable to take an important step to develop her practice.
In Australia, social distancing measures prevent Emily from performing and she has therefore adapted her artistic practice to screen-based as opposed to live performance. Emily has grown her online presence; writing and performing in a children’s web series, online concerts and releasing her second album ‘It’s Who Time’.
Ultimately, Emily is looking forward to the ease in travel restrictions and the prospect of attending a similar development opportunity.
