Details
An exhibition of woven artworks exploring “emergence” generated using plant growth algorithms. Within our ecosystem that includes nature and human technology, Melanie Olde seeks to understand complex systems, how human technology creates the ‘artificial’ and what we can learn about our connections through these hybridized art forms. A Canberra– based experimental weaver, Olde recently completed her Masters of Contemporary Art Practice. She exhibits, teaches, publishes, and presents nationally and internationally, most recently in the USA, Finland, New Zealand, and at the ANU School of Art and Design.
