Gardening Under the Surface - with Operation Posidonia
National Science Week 2022.
Marine ecologists from Operation Posidonia and the Sydney Institute of Marine Science invited participants to learn about Lake Macquarie and Sydney Harbour’s seagrass meadows and participate in practical scientific activities to understand how they function. Participants had the opportunity to share their knowledge with community, friends and family by taking part in a hands-on science-meets-art activity led by local artist Liss Finney. The participants created scientific illustrations and painted silk seagrass structures which then were made into a seagrass meadow and installed locally at both Mosman Art Gallery and The Lake Macquarie Museum of Art and Culture, Yapang.
