Exhibition open 26th - 28th August

The land around Milton Creek is undergoing rapid change: Previously a landfill site the area is now in transition from wasteland to country park. On paper, the strategic vision for the park is complete. In reality though the site feels uncertain - in between states, unsure of what it is. Change Management will involve a two week programme of action to embed the strategic vision for the area into the landscape itself. Actions will include workshops for weeds, presentations for paths and life coaching for the creek. Though a targeted programme of events Dan and Trish Scott will prime the landscape to deliver the aspirational outcomes expected of it. The project will examine how language and corporate processes shape perceptions of place and the gap between ideology and reality. The piece will use the Room as its base and at the end of the residency the project's process and outcomes will be displayed via a three day exhibition.
