Forecast
NOW OPEN | FREE
Forecast is a place for feeling, inviting audiences of all ages and abilities to contemplate trees as family and weather as borderless, amid increasing environmental crisis and divisive times.
Equal part exhibition, artist studio, retreat, and creative weather station, Forecast features interconnected generations of families and forests; daily disappearing treescapes painted with water; felt river stones for resting; shifting weather patterns; and an invitation to move and be moved.
The experiential exhibition is created through the artist-led curatorial practices of AGWA’s Head of Learning and Creativity Research, Lilly Blue, ECU’s Centre for People, Place and Planet artist-scholar, Dr Jo Pollitt, together with artists Dianne Jones and Eva Fernandez, and you the visitor.
At a time of increasing climate instability, we invite audiences to engage with First Nations understandings of environment as family, inviting reflection and deepening connection with our changing world. Read more about the exhibition here.
Galley 09 is dedicated to interactive, all ages, artist-led projects and hosts a year round participatory exhibition series that invites families to collaborate, contribute and engage with artist practice.
