forage friendly cities


















Artist as Family's artwork for MCA's In The Balance; Art for a Changing World. A living, growing, transforming "installation"- a food forest designed with permaculture principles (located outside St Michaels Anglican Church, Surry Hills). I'll say a bit more about it later, but I wanted to upload some pictures that show just how artful the experience of gardening is- well I hope it evokes that sense anyway. We certainly had a very pleasant time going from MCA in house exhibition (which will need to be revisited 4 or 5 times I think), over to The Food Forest then over to the C.O.F.A permaculture patch to spruce things up a bit.

 We= Me, Alex and El. (photos by us all)

  1. Great photos!

    Patrick visited the Forest last week, but I haven't been for a few. He said things have blossomed— these photos certainly show just how much.

    Fantastico! And I must say, El, your green and back dress is just so pretty. xx
