From MCR Museum website:

"Wild explores our relationship with the natural world and looks at how people across the globe are creating, rebuilding and repairing connections with nature.

What fuels our fear of dangers that lurk in the wild? Can ‘wildness’ flourish within a city’s concrete jungle? How do we care for things we can’t see?


Wild will challenge the way we think about nature, whisking you to wild places across the world to hear a diverse range of voices, from Aboriginal elders to researchers and community activists. Find out how they’re shaping their environments and looking to wild for a more positive future."


I attended a residential called 'Music and Mountains' with Olympias Music Foundation, where I recorded sounds throughout the trip. The track contains the sounds of nature, some interviews with the children, and the music the children made. This was displayed in MCR Museum's WILD exhibition in June - October 2024 alongside pictures taken by the children.
