18.01.2022 Wild City Workshops new date available on November 23 at the Abbotsford Convent, please pass this on to anyone who may be interested. Wild City is a children's art making workshop with artist Kathy Holowko. Children are invited to help turn a small sculptural city into thriving green metropolis, where animals share the landscape and are considered citizens of the mini urban landscape. Children will be introduced to real and inspiring stories of animal architecture, wildlife ...corridors, green roofs and other animal friendly ideas. Then, using their imagination and making skills they will turn the city wild! They can make sculptures, build things, and plant new habitats. Wild City will be on exhibition at St Helliers Gallery from Nov 4-24. This collaborative sculpture uses a playful twist on urban planning tropes (architectural models) to present an alterntive vision for our future enlivened by the imagination of children. Wild City won the People's Choice Award at the 'Art for Social Change' exhibition at Incinerator Gallery.

17.01.2022 I had a nice chat to Nicole Chvastek from ABC Drive Statewide about my latest sculpture in the Edinburgh Gardens. 'The Unsung Hero'. Speaking of hero's, one of mine was asked to speak about it!! David Holmgren is a founder of Permaculture and talked all things worms. I'm feeling pretty happy that if nothing else, I have given this great thinker and do-er some airtime. He is exactly the kind of person we need to hear more from. https://www.abc.net.au//programs/vic-statew/drive/11584800 Episode: Tues 15 Oct: Just after the news around 6:45
