The journey begins as visitors travel through a curtain of ropes. They discover central plinths, showcasing Stromatolites, 560-million year old fossilised life-forms that have been sculpted for display by Artist Peter Syndicas.
As they continue through the space, visitors can peek into the colourful world of consciousness, designed and animated by Arterial.
The journey concludes with an interactive experience, where visitors participate in MOD's ongoing weaving project in line with Ngarrindjeri, Ngadjuri, Narungga & Wirangu Artist Sonya Rankine’s practice.
