MEDIA RELEASE ​

CECILIA FOGELBERG, Visual Artist
Exhibition Title: ‘HEAR US ROAR - THE SIXTH EXTINCTION’

When: 14th March - 5th April 2020

Where: STOCKROOM,  98 Piper Street, KYNETON, 3334

'HEAR US ROAR - THE SIXTH EXTINCTION
’
It is estimated that our current extinction rate is between 1000 and 10,000 times higher than a natural extinction rate. Scientists calculate that between 0.01 and 0.1% of all species are now becoming extinct each year.

While no one knows exactly how many spices exist, a low estimate is that there is 2 million spices on our planet and a high estimate is that it could be up to 100 million spices.
This means that with our current extinction rate between 200-2000 spices becomes extinct yearly on a low estimate and up to 100,000 spices are yearly becoming extinct on a high estimate.
(Statistics provided by WWF)
Are we in the middle of the sixth extinction?
Do we understand that if our current extinction rates continue, humans are also one of the species on the extinction list?
Swedish born artist Cecilia Fogelberg's works emerge from an otherworld of folktales, myths and fables. A colourful, subversive story telling perhaps imagined from the deep forests of her childhood village or an in-between place for a self acknowledged cultural exile.
‘Hear Us Roar - The Sixth Extinction’ is Fogelberg’s second solo show at Stockroom.
Fogelberg has held solo shows at Craft Victoria, VIC, 2008 and Linden Centre for Contemporary Arts, VIC, 2006. Fogelberg has been represented in exhibitions at regional institutions including Hands On: Craft in Contemporary Art, Hazelhurst Regional Gallery & Art Centre, NSW, 2011 and The Bon Scott Project, Fremantle Art Centre, WA, 2008 and was the winner of the Linden Postcard Show, Linden Centre for Contemporary Arts, Melbourne in 2006.

Fogelberg’s work is available from the Art Bank Collection.
Fogelberg holds a BFA (Sculpture) from VCA, Melbourne and is a trained art conservator from Melbourne University’s CCMC. Fogelberg has been a resident of Kyneton since 2012 but has recently relocated to Ballarat. Fogelberg is the owner operator of Fogelberg’s Conservation Framers operating from Kyneton and Ballarat.
