Grounding Rural Practice

2016142832_3_1_200310_124238-w6000-h3997crop.jpg

A farm in the western district of Victoria becomes the home and workshop for an artist invited to take up time and space to explore their practice in relationship with the local environment. The artist shares their findings with the greater community through presentation, reading, open studio or workshop.

We are also crafting proposals for medium term activation of the site for artist residencies, public art programs, and artisanal food production.

We're excited that these residencies are also at times tied to Dining Room Tales. Basing our practice on the land is our own response to challenging times, and embracing the hyper-locality of our practice through the cyclical span of the land could not be more vital.

Contact us to find out more about this ground breaking grounding rural practice for artists.

Artists in Residence

A farm in the western district of Victoria becomes the home and workshop for an artist invited to take up time and space to explore their practice in relationship with the local environment. The artist shares their practice with the greater community through presentation, reading, open studio or workshop.

Dining Room Tales in Community

Across our pilot phase we have shared Dining Room Tales performance events in fourteen locations across the western district, engaging ten communities--Lismore, Camperdown, Derrinallum, Skipton, Tesbury, Darlington, Cobden, Jan Juc, Nirranda, Tarrington--in seventeen creative actions of social resilience.
