Sculptural Walks with Bianca Hester - 'Dust of these domains'

Come along to a sculptural walk as part of Bianca Hester's Circuits of solar descent work at Sculpture in the Garden!

Bianca Hester's work involves a walking series, un-mown circles of grass as gathering points, and bronze sculptures bearing impressions of Illawarra-based plant life from across timescales.

This walk, Dust of these domains, is an ongoing work involving reading and walking which evolves in relation to the specific locations in which it is performed.

It includes a script of textual fragments and a set of hand-scaled bronze objects that bear impressions from plant life across timescales associated with the Illawarra over 250 million years.

Meet at the grass circle on the Mercury Lawn (see site 9B on the map).
