In this exhibition, ceramics, paintings, prints and photographs from MAG&M’s varied Collection coalesce to focus our attention on water.

A collection-response to The Water Understands exhibition in the adjacent galleries, Water shares stories related to our aquatic world: sea-level rise, plastics pollution, urban development, human migration, weather events, global warming, and the wonder of the natural environment. 

Audiences are invited to consider the ways in which artworks have the power to stimulate conversations, raise questions, and inspire discussions about this vital resource upon which all life on earth depends.

Artists include: 

Herbert Badham, Peter Battaglene, Geraldine Berkemeier, Michael Callaghan, Barbara Campbell-Allen, Margaret Coen, Grace Cossington Smith, Pam Debenham, Peter Dittmar, Simone Fraser, Honor Freeman, Harold Greenhill, Euan Macleod, Sassy Park, Tom Roberts, Shorty Jangala Robertson, Wendy Sharpe, Garry Shead, Mitsuo Shoji, Penny Smith, and Anne Zahalka
