The work of Melanie Balestri and Joey Werry (aka Two Anxious Artists) expresses the connection between mind, body and environment. Scouring secondhand stores and tip shops, the duo aim to divert discarded material from landfill to create representations of the therapeutic benefits of art making. Labour intensive, rhythmic and repetitive movements process the connection of mind, body and environment transforming the unwanted into a purposeful and tactile experience.
