Mythica Ignota

Through a deep-conceptual and value-driven philosophy, Alice Springs designer Elliat Rich taps into ancient and future ways of seeing the world. Mythica Ignota uses mythology as a framework to nest scientific observation and more-than-human orientated values with artefact and narrative.

From the mythologies of a world unseen but present, Mythica Ignota presents a collection of portals to other ways to belong to and with planet in this strange time Rich dubs the Osciliocene. Through science, story and the artefacts that hold them, myth becomes daily ritual through objects that tether you to other ways of seeing, thinking, knowing, being.

This exhibition showcases new work developed during her residency at Canberra Glassworks throughout 2024.
