In our world that prefers grief to remain private and neat, this exhibition offers an open space to quietly reflect on the lived experience of loss and brokenness, alongside the resulting process of hope and healing.
It celebrates the allegory of the banksia not just as a botanical marvel, but as a teacher – one that shows us how to endure, transform and leave a legacy that comes from our most broken moments.
