Mountain Flora Project2019 - 2022 Artist in Residence
Australian Tropical Herbarium , Cairns A five year project that will collect, propagate and safeguard up to 20 species of climate-threatened mountaintop flora, to avert their extinction in the Wet Tropics. As artist on the Mountain Flora Project I will be gathering images, data and inspiration to create a body of work that creatively documents the mission whilst also voices the plight of vulnerable mountain-top flora in the Wet Tropics, North Queensland. The Queensland State Archives Creative in Residence program 2019 will also tie into this AIRS project - providing me the opportunity to explore climate change and conservation in the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, with respect to both historical and current data. |
