A tapestry of blood and bone is the first solo exhibition for emerging Ellen Ferrier, a multidisciplinary installation artist, based in the Byron Bay hinterlands of Northern NSW. Her practice focuses on the exploration and creation of regenerative materials, drawing on a diverse range of processes from pre-industrial to bio-technological.

She experiments with materials such as invasive weeds, earth pigments, raw wool, bio-plastics, bio-composites, reclaimed copper, fallen timber and foraged seaweed, among others. Through this experimentation she creates large-scale multi-sensory installations that entice transformative shifts in how we perceive, understand, and relate to the world around us.

Opening event: Friday 28 March. 5:30–7:30pm
