Kilagi's Weaving

22/03/2024

The Carbon Dating exhibition presents a series of artwork-based experiments that aim to generate interest in Australia’s often endangered native grasses. The exhibition tracks how the project assembled 6 teams of scientists, artists, growers and First Nations informants across QLD during 2022-3 (Miles, Gold Coast, Somerset, Samford Valley, Sunshine Coast, and Cairns) – to grow and care for their own plot of native grasses.

Artists exhibiting include Delissa Walker Ngadijina, Jason Murphy, Pipier Weller, Merinda Davies, Hilary Coulter, Liz Capelin, Melissa Stannard, Kilagi Nielsen Kilagi's Weaving , Mia Hacker, Sasha Parlett, Donna Davis, Andrea Higgins, Danielle Constance, Luke Lickfold and Keith Armstrong.

This project is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland, assisted by QUT (School of Creative Practice), Samford Ecological Research Facility, Native Seeds Pty Ltd and ReBul Packaging
