Agri-Cultures is a commissioned video work by the artist Zoe Scoglio (DAI, 2019) in dialogue with local small-scale farmers Gung Hoe growers in response to the theme ‘Industry’. Focusing on the manual labours and tactile relations, this is a visual portrait of the daily regenerative wholistic practices and emergent cultures at the Harcourt Organic Farming Co-op. As a volunteer at Gung Hoe Growers, this commission was an opportunity for Zoe to enter more deeply into conversation and to further learn from and attend to the practices of daily care-full cultivation. Till September 25, 2022.
