Fossil fables

Join us at Tin Sheds Gallery to celebrate the opening of the Fossil Fables exhibition.

• RSVP for opening night

Fossil Fables involves research developed by the Global Extraction Observatory (GEO), a collective led by Eduardo Kairuz and Sam Spurr examining the effects of resource extraction through creative practice, scholarship, and engagement.

In this exhibition, GEO grapples with the challenges of energy production and carbon ideologies in a time of climate crisis.

These works explore the entanglement of history, myth, politics, and the economic and material issues that play out in the shaping of Australia’s unique national ethos and identity.

Exhibition by The Global Extraction Observatory (GEO) – Eduardo Kairuz and Sam Spurr in collaboration with D'Arcy Newberry-Dupe, Bud Rizk.

Curated with Kate Goodwin.
