Urban Oasis Pop-Up ‘Fortunes of the Forest – divination readings’ part of the ‘Make Visible’ Outdoor…

Thursday, March 21, 2024, 1 – 3pm Fortunes of the Forest is an intimate one-to-one encounter between an individual and Brisbane artist Caitlin Franzmann. The encounter is guided by a deck of divination cards created by the artist during her residency in Karawatha Forest, Brisbane. Sessions will be facilitated by Caitlin Franzmann or Kate Woodcroft. Each divination card depicts an image of a plant, rock or insect from the forest (photographed by artist Man Cheung) and is a celebration of these beings with whom we share primeval genes. Selecting one card, participants will receive a divination reading that weaves together ethnobotanical, biological and spiritual stories to produce something magical and medicinal that is unique to each visitor.This Urban Oasis Pop-Up will be in the Queen Street Mall from 19 to 23 March, 10am to 5pm, and include a series of events. Visit the Outdoor Gallery page for more details.This program is part of Council’s Outdoor Gallery program Make Visible.
