Foraging In The Wastestream

8 November - 8 December

2022

Artists Involved

Curator

Tami ESANCY

Six contemporary artists critique the insatiable appetite of consumerism by searching for ways to reduce, recycle, reuse and reclaim materials through their artistic practice.

 

They ask, through foraging and fossicking, how can art shift our perception of what is trash and what is treasure?

 

In partnership with the Bullsbrook Recycling Centre and the Ethel Warren Centre, the exhibition is a culmination of residencies and workshops that focus on art-making by collaboration, and using materials that have been foraged from the waste processing plants. Using a range of materials both organic and man-made, the results are often surprising and thought-provoking.
