Design and the Anthropocene

Regional NSW artists Steven Cavanagh and Rebecca Dowling have joined forces to create this installation reflecting on the natural world.

Regional NSW artists Steven Cavanagh (Hill End) and Rebecca Dowling (Cowra) have joined forces to create this installation reflecting on the natural world. Familiar domestic objects made using stoneware and cyanotype photographic techniques have been created through individual practice and collaborative conversations. Studio processes celebrate the rituals of home and hearth while considering future Australian bushlands.

This is a special collaboration between ADC and Regional Arts NSW to bring the work of regional designer makers to a Sydney audience.

Object Space is our window gallery located at the Australian Design Centre HQ on William Street, Darlinghurst, on view 24 hours a day.
