Shared Waters explores the quiet, often unnoticed lives of native animals that inhabit Lake Benalla. The exhibition heroes species that exist alongside our daily lives yet remain largely unseen. By bringing these animals into focus, this exhibition asserts Lake Benalla as a shared ecosystem. The works invite viewers to slow down, look again and consider what it means to coexist with animals that quietly depend on the same waters.
