Press Release

An enriching and life-affirming exhibition, The Soils Project explores the meaning of soil as both matter and metaphor. The exhibition brings together 13 practitioners and collectives from Australia, the Netherlands, and Indonesia to explore the complex and diverse relationships between environmental change and colonisation.

The exhibition is the latest iteration of an ongoing research-based experimental project developed in collaboration with leading contemporary arts museum the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven, Netherlands and Struggles for Sovereignty, a collective based in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The Soils Project arises from specific and situated practices that each of the participants and artists brings to their understanding of soil, as both metaphor and matter.

About the Gallery

TarraWarra Museum of Art is a not-for-profit public art museum on Wurundjeri Country in the Yarra Valley, near Healesville, around an hour north-east of Melbourne. Founded by philanthropists Eva Besen AO and Marc Besen AC, who donated an award-winning purpose-built museum by architect Allan Powell along with more than 600 works of Australian art, TarraWarra opened to the public in 2003. The museum is renowned for its intimate scale, striking architecture set amid vineyards and rolling hills, and a focus on modern and contemporary Australian art from the 1930s to the present.
