This exhibition draws attention to the symbiotic relationship between mistletoe plants and painted honeyeater (Grantiella picta) birds.

Their mutualistic interdependence is a metaphor for stories of care and reparation. This multidisciplinary environmental art exhibition includes field work on Bigambul country near Goondiwindi, as well as creative experiments of drawing, painting and assemblage construction were completed in Lloyd-Giblett’s home studio on the Sunshine Coast.

The collection of works was driven by the artist’s desire to investigate historical, ethical and affective relationships she has with the Western Queensland landscape.

Through the making process Lloyd-Giblett embodied environmental art practices to create and imagine a speculative future for this site, grounded in notions of kinship, reciprocity and care
