Manly Art Gallery & Museum, Eramboo Artist Environment and National Parks & Wildlife Service NSW are supporting a new collaborative exhibition for which artists and scientists worked together in response to a year of research and creativity inspired by the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. Participants include; Dr Lisa Roberts and Prof Bill Gladstone, Shona Wilson and Si-Chong Chen, Joshua Yeldham and Mia Dalby-Ball, Dr Bonita Ely and Dr Karen Privat, Megan Cope and Roberta Johnson, Julia Davis, Sarah Robson and Dr Asheeta Prasad, Mika Utzon Popov and Suzanne Schibeci, Greg Stonehouse and Shane Fahey, as well as Kassandra Bossell and Garry Daly. Avoiding a prescriptive model the teams were encouraged to contribute equally to produce a unique form and dialogue that would promote conservation. The project is accompanied by a series of public programs including the Oceanic Bliss: Data Choreography workshop with marine biologist William Gladstone and artist Lisa Roberts experimenting with art and science through drawing, photography, movement and sound, Tuesday 7 February, 7-9pm, and In Conversation: Artists & Scientists, in which four groups will discuss their ideas, processes and installations with the curators on Sunday 19 February, 2-4pm both on at Manly Art Gallery & Museum. Eramboo Artist Environment presents a masterclass with acoustic engineer Shane Fahey exploring the art of sound and vibration, Saturday 11 February, 10-3pm.
