Our volunteer Bärbel Winkler filed her daily report from the 2023 AGU General Assembly.

taking a deep dive next year into timber tramlines, flourishing revegetation, geological specimens, and representations of the nonhuman in the Museum of the Goldfields collection on a Art on the move Activating Collections Artist Residencies 2022. The residency will take place in Kalgoorlie-Boulder/Karlkurla on unceded Wangkathaa land. Many thanks to Art on the move and Museum of the Goldfields for making this happen. Couldn't have been better timing to get this amazing opportunity. So glad to be back in the studio and back in the field
