the crucibulum – The Alchemy of Change
This giant fire installation is a circular gathering space in which a live Biochar kiln process is ‘performed’ as a powerful artwork in response to the critical need for societal transformation and climate action.
Co-created by artists Sally Jamila and Robert Mignault, The Crucibulum Experience is designed to bring the viewer to a place where art and science fuse together in the Alchemy of Fire and Healing.
The Biochar kiln is an immersive fire-sculpture not to be missed. Come along, meet the artists and participate in this tangible, creative and practical response to our climate crisis.

Upcoming Schedule
November 29 2024
Join us to celebrate two new exhibitions. ‘Passive Resistance’
by Kiri Abraham
At 5 pm we will light the crucibulum, a fire installation in which a live Biochar kiln process is ‘performed’ as a powerful artwork in response to the critical need for societal transformation and climate action. This coincides with, and supports Kiri Abraham’s Passive Resistance. Both works draw heavily on the importance of soil health, sustainability, resilience, and the full cycle of environmental metamorphosis.
This is an opportunity to gather, take a pause, talk or reflect, appreciate what we have and what may be lost.
