    Ghost Quarters was presented 9-16 May 2009 at CarriageWorks as part of ongoing explorations around the literary works of Thomas De Quincey by Tess de Quincey & Jane Goodall with Ian Stevenson, Sam James, Amanda Stewart & Chris Abrahams. Ghost Quarters is a performance installation exploring the experience of destitution, addiction and the spatial uncanny. This work is part of an overarching investigation, The Opium Confessions, exploring new approaches to the artistic communication of sensory and emotional states. This body of work is initiated by writer Jane Goodall and performer Tess de Quincey in partnership with sound designer Ian Stevenson and video artist Sam James. Ghost Quarters includes a collaboration with poet/vocalist Amanda Stewart and composer Chris Abrahams and is produced by De Quincey Co.
