Art Presentation - Orogenesis (mountain building) pop-up exhibition at Hallidays Point.

Join Dr. Kim Hamilton for the Orogenesis (mountain building) Pop-Up Art Exhibition, a unique visual exploration of the Mid North Coast’s geological history. This interactive exhibition delves into the region’s remarkable geological past through site-specific artworks that depict key rock formations, changing tectonic plates, and the erosion that shaped the landscape. Audiences will have the opportunity to engage with a digital mapping tool, guided by Kim herself, to uncover the geologic timescale of the rocks in their own surroundings. Don’t miss this immersive experience that bridges art and geology in a captivating and educational way.
