permanent exhibition
Fragile Earth II: Breathe is an expansive and beautiful new exhibition that considers notions of reciprocity and the relationship between humans, breath and plant species.

It explores our dependency on plant life, but also the tentacular webs, nets and networks integral to all lives and stories being lived together. To breathe-with, to consider the more-than-human world, to breathe with others or listen to those last breaths. To what do we owe the privilege of breath?

Featured artists in Fragile Earth II: Breathe include: Raymond Arnold, Andrew Brown, Jane Burton, Penny Carruthers, Nadine Christensen, Vivian Cooper Smith, Judy Dorber, Lesley Duxbury, Richard Dunn, Kasia Fabijańska, Anna Farago, Dianne Fogwell, Wendy Habraken-Flack, Kye Hanley, Gillian Kline, Rosemary Laing, Nadine Lineham, Adelaide MacPherson, Tim Maguire, Deborah Milligan, Izabela Pluta, Fiona Reynolds, Rachel Steinmann, Dawn Stubbs, Chris Stubbs, and Andrew Styan who, as part of the exhibition, will also present a feature work in the new YES Gallery.
