From Minjerribah’s oyster-encrusted rocks to the Pilbara region’s iron-rich red monoliths, the exhibition looks at how contemporary artists use materials to critically evaluate our relationship to the land.
Set against the backdrop of Australia’s extractive economy, Earth Matters reflects on the discourse surrounding land-use, mining, and ongoing colonisation of Indigenous Country. Through these works, the exhibition asks: what power dynamics shape our relationship to the land, and what is our relationship to its material?
Artists include: Robert Andrew, Megan Cope, Kia Dowell, Nicholas Mangan, Gabriel Nodea, Perdita Phillips, and Stewart Scambler. Curated by Molly Werner.
