Shock Lines is composed of glass artist Caitlin Dubler, sound artist & cellist Natasha Dubler and percussionist Niki Johnson.

Shock Lines brings three distinctive understandings of material, transformation and gesture into dialogue through each artist’s respective craft. By mutually challenging the strict conventions of each individual practice the collaboration opens new avenues for play across disciplinary forms.

Caitlin Dubler is a glass artist and trained silversmith exploring material histories through craft processes. Recent work has involved experimental glass fusing, playing with chemical reactions within the kiln firing process.

Natasha Dubler is a multidisciplinary artist working across sound installation, music performance and small sculpture. She is interested in how resonance, as a material phenomenon, can mould and shape landscape at or below the Earth’s surface, and how memories of these subtle shifts are etched into the material histories of a site.

Niki Johnson is a percussionist and composer-performer whose musical practice incorporates contemporary classical repertoire, improvisation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and performance art. She collaborates with fine-artists, and experimental musicians to create new artworks and instruments existing in the liminal spaces of art mediums.
