Engaging with the river systems, this work by Evie J Taylor seeks to prompt a conversation between community and the environment, touching on ideas of ecological memory and belonging in place.
Blending projected video constellations and poetic fragments, Threading the Waters invites audiences into a moment of stillness, honouring the interconnectedness of all beings and systems, and acknowledging the interdependence between human and ecological health - both healing and finding belonging on interpersonal, ecological and cosmological levels.
Visitors are encouraged to drift between moments of connection and introspection, tracing their own relationship with landscape, self, and time. Projected outdoors and in dialogue with the local environment, Threading the Waters becomes a soft offering: a return to the space between stars and rivers, memory and presence.
Community Gathering
Join the artists for a special launch event including poetry reading, live music, picnic and screening.
