Visit This: An Exhibition Bridging Humans and the Natural World
Bundanon’s 2025 program is a striking cross-collision between human and non-human worlds. The ambitious multi-artist exhibition, “Thinking Together: Exchanges with the Natural World”, features new commissions by contemporary artists Robert Andrew, Isabel and Alfredo Aquilizan, and Keg de Souza, presented alongside video works by Sorawit Songsataya and Tina Stefanou, and paintings by Martu Artists of central Western Australia. “Thinking together is an exhibition that encourages audiences to reflect on our connections to the natural world and all that we can learn from it,” says Sophie O’Brien, the head of curatorial and learning and Bundanon. “These commissions naturally arise out of the Bundanon landscape itself, based on the site visit each artist has made. The artists each have a practice that engages deeply with collaborative research, communal making or community building, alongside a desire to affect social change and to protect – and connect to – the natural environment around us.”
“Thinking Together: Exchanges with the Natural World” runs from March 1 to June 8, 2025. bundanon.com.au.
