Local creative duo to connect with the Bushland and develop new works

This October, renowned watercolour artist Libby Derham and contemporary installation artist Mieke van den Berg will be Artists in Residence at the Arts and Ecology Centre.

Their collaborative project asks:

  • How different ecosystems affect human sensory experiences?
  • What does nature’s ephemeral footprint look like?
  • Can we translate these findings into installations, artworks, or performances?

Wednesday 15 October, 10am - 2pm: Tracing Nature collaborative workshop. Bookings essential.

Friday 17 October, 10am: Showcase day

Saturday 18 October, 10am: Showcase + children's workshop

Registrations opening soon.
