Things on Earth are changing at an alarming rate and we have a cause for concern.

Our weather patterns are changing, temperatures are rising on land and in the sea,

and of course the pandemic. 

It is becoming more evident that nature is an inherent part of our existence.  

 

We document the national impacts of extreme floods, droughts, heatwaves, storms and wildfires –

millions of animals killed and habitats burnt, people’s livelihoods and homes lost – yet here we are.

Many longer-term effects are still to play out.

We’ve become so separated from nature and have transformed Australia’s natural landscapes so dramatically

that ecosystems are collapsing en-masse right in front of our eyes.
 

If you have been reading the news, the latest bio-diversity report seems to be doom and gloom,

but it doesn’t have to be this way. 

It also carries a framework for solutions and acknowledgement that widespread rehabilitation and restoration can still help Australia’s struggling ecosystems.

 

Instead of ‘just’ protecting and restoring what we can,

we also need to renovate and rebuild for a future climate. 

This means rebuilding an ecosystem to thrive under a future climate.

 

This exhibition explored the plight of our vulnerable bird life,

how they are adapting and conservation programs,

but also opened up questions of how we as individuals can help.​
