Lucky Dragons is an ongoing collaboration between artists Sarah Rara and Luke Fischbeck.
They research forms of participation and dissent, purposefully working towards a better understanding of existing ecologies through performances, publications, recordings, and public art. The name Lucky Dragons is borrowed from the fishing vessel caught in fallout from American H-bomb tests in the mid-1950s, an incident which sparked international outcry and gave birth to the worldwide anti-nuclear movement. In 2021, they were selected as participants for Sonic Acts’ OVEREXPOSED residency programme, and have presented their work in a wide variety of contexts, including REDCAT, LACMA, MOCA and The Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the Centre Georges Pompidou, 54th Venice Biennale, Documenta 14, the Whitney Biennial among many others.
