ANYONE CAN HELP — MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL BUSHFIRE RECOVERY

EVERYDAY
Written by Gracia Haby
 

We recently took part in a Constructing Nesting Boxes event, as part of Conservation Volunteers Bushfire Recovery (Melbourne), and helped to cut hinges from a sheet of rubber and screw them to the lids, and sand sheets of exterior plywood for the next batch of temporary homes.

Together, thirty-five volunteers made twenty nesting boxes, and it warmed the heart to be a part of something positive.

I have been collaborating with Louise Jennison since 1999, making artists’ books, collages, large-scale installations, prints, drawings, zines, and various tales. Besotted still, it appears, with paper for its adaptable, concealable, revealing nature, we use an armoury of play, the poetic and familiar too, with the intention of luring you into our A(rtists’ books) to Z(ines).

As artists and wildlife carers, our practice frequently concerns the natural world, addressing themes of conservation and biodiversity. Our home-based studio is also home to our wildlife shelter, Tiny but Wild.

I collage with words about dance for Fjord Review.
