The weather is a common topic of conversation and now it’s become a source of art too.
Wyndham Art Gallery is currently hosting the WEATHER/whether exhibition which is on display until January 7.
This exhibition explores and reflects on the weather we are experiencing and what
our future might hold.
Curated by Olivia Poloni and Megan Evans, the exhibition features eight artists:
Alison Bennett, Peta Clancy, Megan Cope, Jessie French, Cara Johnson, Keg de
Souza, Gomathi Suresh and Mandy Quadrio, presenting their work which explores
and considers the impact of changing weather patterns.
Residents are encouraged to ponder our world through a range of mediums:
landscape photographs, spliced with colonial images along the Merri Creek,
botanical stories using natural flora and interactive digital plant life and a powerful
catalogue essay is also provided by CLIMARTE Founder Guy Abrahams.
“This intriguing exhibition explores the changing nature of weather and the impact this has on our world,” said Wyndham councillor Marcel Mahfoud.
“Through art we can explore ideas and concepts and look at issues through a
different lens to help make sense of the world.”
