From the Collection: Brook Andrew

Brook Andrew will present works in Ancher House from his Hope and Peace series against the backdrop of one of the artist's iconic wall-paintings. Chun Yin Rainbow Chan has been invited to establish a temporary studio in Lewers House and produce an audio description of the heritage garden. Eddie Abd will undertake a series of workshops at Nepean Creative and Performing Arts High School, while Diego Bonetto will conduct a series of wild edible foraging workshops in the Gallery's historic gardens. In collaboration with Café at Lewers, James Tylor's recipes will be featured on the opening day alongside text, photography and collectable recipes profiling native edible plants that are found across both the Gadigal Basin and Kaurna Country.
