Escape to the Safe Zone [Exhibition]
Escape to the Safe Zone critically investigates the intricate interplay between natural and sociocultural systems via animal/human relationships. Leisa Rich integrates traditional, reclaimed textiles and historical fibre processes with the advanced technologies of 3D printing, laser cutting/engraving and AI. Safe Zone is a conceptual sanctuary amid pervasive environmental and societal precarity, compelling viewers to transcend passive spectatorship and actively interrogate notions of protection, vulnerability, and interdependence.
