in (bird) dialogue


As you may have noticed a symphony of native bird song has returned to Te Aro in force, via the work of Wellington artist Darryl Walker, and her show in dialogue at Enjoy. There is an opportunity to become a collaborator in the exhibition this weekend at Karori Sanctuary, Wellington...should be a lot of fun too!

"In conjunction with World Environment Day, Darryl Walker is working with audiences off-site at Karori Sanctuary on 6th June (10.30 – 12.30 & 1.30 – 3.30 pm).

Participants will be given the opportunity to learn the songs of indigenous birds from the Wellingt
on region. Each person’s final rendition will be recorded, forming a sound sculpture to be installed in the historic stairwell leading to Enjoy, as part of Walker's exhibition."

Check out the Sactuary's website for more details
