Just back from a road trip around western NSW and Victoria (a poor but enjoyable substitute for the covid cancelled skiing trip to US!)

We were keen to see some of the silo art that is proliferating across the country, and I took my camera drone to get some footage.

We spent a day exploring about 8 silos in the Victorian Mallee, and I shot each from the observation area as well as using the drone.

As I perused the footage, I was struck by the different views I was able to obtain (see video here) and how it enriched the perspective and the experience of the artwork.

It reminded me of our collaboration work- the importance of seeing more than one viewpoint when tackling a complex situation, and being able to obtain the various perspectives from those involved to build a clearer and more complete picture of the situation prior to seeking solutions.

It also reminded me how challenging it can be to draw in those perspectives and how we may need to get creative to see and understand those other views (we don’t always have a drone!)
