Overview

'Creek' is a solo exhibition by Kirsten Wehner, recipient of the 2024 M16 Artspace Environmental Artist Residency, generously supported by ConceptSix.

'Creek' explores life along Weston Creek, a little-known waterway in suburban Canberra. Once a system of intermittent rills and wetlands rich with plants, insects and birds, today the creek is often seen only as a polluted stormwater drain. Asking what it might mean to care for this disordered place, 'Creek' presents drawings, sculpture and experimental collaborations that honour work to rehabilitate the catchment and invite attention to the waterway’s possibility as a place of cultural/ecological flourishing.

Creek will open alongside …Is somebody gonna match my freak? by Sophie Dumaresq and Asil Habara.
