The Reckoning

13 June – 28 June 2009

Preview Friday 12 June from 7pm


The sun rises, there is air to breathe, water to drink, and land to stand on, but for how much longer?

Our fears have been directed upon the more dramatic and glamorous enemies without. Despite warnings, we persist with the senselessness of lemmings, blithely running towards the abyss.

Regard the pretty pass our short-termism has brought us to.

There will be a Reckoning.
