Dive into a captivating exhibition that explores the interplay between natural and man-made materials through mixed media and sculpture. This event invites you to reflect on themes of sustainability, feminism, and the shifting dynamics between humans and the environment.
The artworks challenge traditional views of female artists by highlighting practices such as collecting and preserving as vital cultural, ecological, and feminist expressions. Expect thought-provoking pieces that celebrate what is preserved and question what is discarded.
Perfect for parents seeking an inspiring cultural outing that encourages meaningful conversations with their school-aged children about art and the environment.
The exhibition runs for one day, offering a full day to explore the diverse artworks. Visitors can expect to see pieces like Bridget McDermott’s "Substrate and Drift," which uses pressed seaweed, watercolour, pen, and gold leaf.
