Fragile Futures

An sculptural exhibition using 3D-printing waste to explore the tension between what we make, what we value and what we leave behind.

Beauty and familiar natural forms draw viewers in before the material contradiction becomes visible — creating space for reflection on consumption, preservation and environmental consequence.

Discuss the exhibition

An evolving exhibition

New works continue to enter the exhibition as the project develops, allowing each presentation to draw from a growing body of work while retaining its underlying environmental proposition.

Installed in different gallery contexts

Installations at Meeniyan Art Gallery and Yarra Sculpture Gallery demonstrate how Fragile Futures can respond to very different scales and architectural settings. Rather than requiring a fixed floor plan, works are selected and placed in response to the character of each gallery.
