Making the Metro Tunnel


I currently have an artwork in an exhibition at Domain House in South Yarra, Melbourne. Some information about the exhibition follows:

In 2019, Metro Tunnel Creative Program partnered with the Royal Botanic Gardens, to offer four Melbourne artists rare access the State Botanical Collection at the National Herbarium of Victoria. Artists Caitlin Klooger, Tai Snaith, Dianna Wells and Oliver Ashworth-Martin have created wonderfully diverse responses to the Herbarium collection. Three of the artwork concepts have subsequently been reproduced as major hoarding artworks displayed around the Anzac Station construction site adjacent to the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria’s Melbourne site.

‘Making the Metro Tunnel: reflections by contemporary Australian artists’ captures the process of building this massive city-shaping rail project through artworks that respond to the project’s construction, as well as a creative partnership with the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria.

Free, open 11am-5pm Wednesday to Sunday
1 April to 7 May
Domain House, Dallas Brooks Drive, South Yarra.

Presented by the Metro Tunnel Creative Program.
