This work was made with the support of Creative New Zealand and University of Canterbury. 'In Bloom' is a living sculpture inviting consideration of the often uneasy relationship between nature and industrial progress. Here, 11 bronze-cast car tyres are stacked in a seemingly random arrangement to form a planter.

Following previous iteration in Aotearoa, this is the first presentation of 'In Bloom' in Australia, courtesy of STATION. The artist has collaborated with Le Perouse-based Aboriginal-owned social enterprise and native plant nursery IndigiGrow. Together, they have made a selection of critically endangered Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub species found in the sandy coastal stretches of Dharawal, Bidjigal and Gadigal Country in Sydney.

The artist hopes that seeds from the planting will disperse and regenerate back into the land from which they have been removed.
