Join us in the Outer Space Main Gallery to celebrate the opening of Time Tunnels by Hannah Hallam-Eames.

About the exhibition

Time Tunnels is an immersive sculptural installation where volcanic mineral deposits, radiolarian fossils, dripping water, cast metal and carved stone become a sulfuric subterranean cave.

This exhibition is the outcome of five years of remote field research into unstable terrain around the world across glaciers, volcanoes and crude oil wells. From eruptions in Iceland, to glaciers in Aotearoa, the project has culminated near Meanjin, to explore ancient radiolarian deposits from a time when the Tweed Valley was a singular shield volcano.

About the artist⁠

Hannah Hallam-Eames is an artist, bushland regenerator and independent researcher. Her practice explores the radical instability of the ground, in particular; crude oil wells, glaciers, and volcanoes. This research encompasses immersive installations, born from meticulous field and laboratory research conducted within environments where solid geological terrains transition rapidly into liquid states.
