This consultation has now closed and the project has been completed. Thank you for your input which has helped shape this project for the community.
Noosa Council is proud to present Floating Land 2017: Lost & Found.
Floating Land is a five-week arts festival of exhibitions, events and workshops in nature about nature, the highlight of which are the sculptures created in outdoor natural settings. Its aim is to leave no mark on the environment but only to make an impression on the people who visit.
The theme for 2017 will be Lost & Found It will be programmed over a five-week period from 8th September – 15th October 2017.
We are living in virtual times where our connection with the environment is increasingly through a digital realm. Floating Land: Lost & Found invites the audience to reconnect with the authenticity of nature through art. It will ask us to consider that loss is an inherent aspect of both the environment and the human experience, and through the process of loss we value what remains and become open to finding new futures.
