Artecycle 2013

        
       
       How Now 
           Artecycle, Environmental Art Award 2013, Incinerator Gallery, Melbourne.

          Stevens work examines environmental and spiritual aspects of Australian identity, 
        questioning land use and national and personal responsibility toward the environment. 

         How Now is a post-colonial reflection of the impact of pastoralism on the Australian
         landscape. As the living hide reflects the dead, the exploitation of animals mirrors the
         exploitation of the environment. Supported by a Capitalist economy, both dairy and 
         beef industries have increasingly contributed toward an ecological crisis.
