Toss by MIDDEN –Sarah Edmondson, Mary Martin and Niamh McGuinne

Opening Thursday 25 June, 6-8:30pm

Recently, we uncovered a virtual midden, a repository of debris tied to the insatiable greed of resource extraction. From this chaotic pile of scandal and exploitation, we propose an excavation. Our findings will be presented through a combination of text, video, photographs, drawings, prints, and a curated selection of artefacts. 
 
These artefacts are alluring, their superficial appeal catching the eye as they glisten within the sediment of the past. They speak volumes about humanity’s behaviour—our insatiable desire to exploit, extract, consume, and discard. Through this exhibition, we will reflect on these patterns of destruction and the undeniable truths they leave behind.  
 
MIDDEN collective are Sarah Edmondson, Mary Martin and Niamh McGuinne – who together focus on the interpretation of evidence, creating decidedly unscientific work combining fact with fiction to create new narratives.
