Join Greg Donson as he walks through the ‘Theatre Country’ exhibition.
This exhibition pivots around artist and designer Cecelia Kumeroa (Te Ātihaunui-a-Pāparāngi) and environmental scientist Dr. Billy van Uitregt’s (Ngā Rauru, Te Ātihaunui-a-Pāparāngi, Tuhoe, Dutch) collaborative moving image work – Dawn Chorus (2022). Their work uses the sounds of birds recorded at Bushy Park Tarapuruhi by Dr. van Uitregt which are then visually animated by Kumeroa. It’s a work that speaks very specifically to here in Whanganui and to a future where native birds are flourishing, singing all the time.
