Edinburgh Gardens Community Rooms, Fitzroy
From Aboriginal rights to LGBTQ+ advocacy, the environment movement to housing and employment rights, Yarra’s citizens have been leaders in driving social progressive change for over 100 years.
We the People x Yarra was participatory discussion hosted at Edinburgh Gardens Community Room. Inspired by my ongoing research into the rich tapestry of Yarra’s long history of protest, the conversation used archival material as a starting point for conversation about the importance of progressive activism today. Alongside the conversation, I created an artist book, self guided walking tour with map and a new series of posters that think about legacies of activism within a contemporary political context.
