Stephanie will speak about her relationship with ecological restoration specialists, Bio.R, who are remediating former agricultural sites in South Australia. She will share her experiences of making artworks that are meant to decompose, but which also need to meet the stringent bio-security standards of the Museum of Economic Botany. The talk will unpack her process, ideas and materials, and provide tactile examples for the audience to handle during and after the session.
