The exhibition offers a trans-disciplinary approach to addressing the events and cycles surrounding wildfires. It aims to delve into the profound impact and consequences of displacing nearly 100,000 individuals in just one afternoon. Through various mediums such as photographs, pyrograms, satellite imagery, and verbal and written expressions, the exhibition endeavors to capture the essence of this displacement.
Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in workshops, listen to keynote speakers, and engage with other interactive elements to gain deeper insights and contemplate diverse perspectives and feedback on the subject.
The exhibition is open from 12 - 4pm everyday except Wednesdays when the gallery is open 11am - 3pm.
Furthermore, there are two Dialouge evenings events on the 10th and 17th April.
The exhibition runs until 29th April. More Information Here
