Patterns for Future Living
Patterns for Future Living brings together DIY (do-it-yourself) aesthetics with a DIT (do-it-together) ethos.
Engage, contemplate and discover an expansive interconnected future with Patterns for Future Living, a dynamic DIY exhibition that stirs collective action for environmental and ecological justice.
Inspired by the works of modernist artist Sonia Delaunay Terk, this space fosters mediation and care through an immersive installation of rhythmic colour, pattern and sound.
Commissioned by Metro Arts and Brisbane Festival, this visionary body of work explores future living patterns, underscoring the interconnectedness of all living things.
An accompanying text by Courtney Pedersen is available here.
