Wildflowering by Design Touring Exhibition

Wildflowering by Design explores contemporary responses to our botanical and wildflower heritage and presents works by Queensland female artists who work across the art and design spectrum. The exhibition celebrates the botanical environment through a design lens, exploring materiality, hand-crafting, and the digital realm, extending the scope of an Australian environmental design culture. In Wildflowering by Design contemporary women artists take a fresh look at the historical legacy, engage with local landscapes, and extend their practice to create new, re-imagined works and visions.
