About the exhibition
In a period of concerning climate change, 'forage: symbiotic (trans)formations' explores, interprets, transforms and preserves nature’s ephemera and our relationships to it; inviting visitors to pursue deepened connections with their surroundings, environmental awareness and the veneration of our human-enviro symbiosis.
The exhibition brings together eight east coast, metro and regional female Artists for whom foraging natural materials is at the core of their artistic practices. The Artists introduce fresh and original methods to conventional artistic mediums such as printmaking, painting, weaving, fibre art, textiles, film, ceramics, sculptural installation and digital AI. They achieve this by integrating natural debris, saps, pigments, and the surrounding atmosphere.
Tour venues:
