Artist: Michelle Walker

Title: Holding it Together (trio) II

Year: 2024

Materials: Salvaged timber and metal 

Dimensions: 160cm x 200cm x 450cm


Holding it Together series emerged in response to the 2022 floods and blends solid timber with sharp-edged metal seemingly spilling from an unseen interior. The works explore the uncertainty of what’s solid and the hidden aspects of internal landscapes, reflecting a heightened vulnerability and sense of exposure. Pressure to "hold it together" persists, driven by the likelihood of more frequent climate events in the future.

The artwork serves as a thought-provoking commentary on the impact climate change triggered events are having on our landscapes and communities
