Manly Art Gallery & Museum’s (MAG&M) latest exhibition, Signs in the Sand: Anna Madaleine Raupach’s Climate Sign Archive, is an immersive augmented reality experience, in partnership with respected contemporary artist, Anna Madeleine Raupach.

Opening during Climate Action Week on 11 March 2025, Signs in the Sand is a powerful example of how art and technology can come together to address urgent environmental issues.

The exhibition will feature digitised signs from Raupach’s archive, as well as new signs created during the annual Collective for Environmental Art & Design (CEAD) Forum held this month.

This augmented reality (AR) installation will be displayed along Manly Cove’s beachfront and within MAG&M, providing an interactive experience for visitors. QR codes placed at MAG&M will link visitors to the project’s AR platform, allowing them to engage with the artwork in a unique and meaningful way.

This exhibition not only highlights the creativity and innovation of our community but also encourages them to reflect on the role we all play in fostering environmental and sustainability awareness and action.

Signs in the Sand is part of MAG&M’s commitment to presenting art and ideas that drive real-world environmental change through the CEAD program. The exhibition aligns with MAG&M’s mission to inspire interdisciplinary creativity and meaningful dialogue about sustainability.

The exhibition is free and open to the public, making it accessible for everyone to enjoy and participate in this important conversation about the environment.
