Corowa Art Space is privileged to host the profound group exhibition, 'Cries From The Anthropocene' by the Creative Practice Circle (CPC), a dynamic network of creative practitioners and researchers that originated at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in 2016.
Drawing from deep roots in regional Australia, the CPC's research is unified by a focus on the ethical and practical challenges facing our society and world, integrating diverse forms of creative practice, from collage and embroidery to poetry and digital prints as a core research methodology. The group aims to make a lively and timely contribution to a world worth living in by fostering critical dialogue across arts, humanities, and the natural sciences.
Federation Council Mayor, Cr Cheryl Cook, expressed her enthusiasm for the exhibition, emphasizing its local relevance.
"We are delighted to welcome the 'Cries From The Anthropocene' exhibition to the Corowa Art Space," Mayor Cook said.
"It's fantastic to see a group with such strong regional ties, like the Creative Practice Circle from CSU, bringing this important and thought-provoking work to our community."
This exhibition directly tackles current existential dilemmas by exploring the Anthropocene - the current era where human activity is the dominant influence on Earth's climate and ecosystems. The collective works from CPC members aim to strengthen sustainable thinking and action on the climate challenges.
The Creative Practice Circle: Cries From The Anthropocene will be on display at Corowa Art Space from 23rd October to 22nd November 2025. Entry is free. Opening hours are Tuesday to Friday, 10 am to 4 pm, and Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm.
