In 2011 and 2012 Brisbane based artist-run initiative inbetweenspaces met
with over 20 people from disaster-affected communities in Queensland and
Victoria to discuss, collaboratively arrange and photograph their belongings. 20 large-scale images of these objects will
travel around Brisbane and Melbourne cities during the 2012 Next Wave Festival. At traffic intersections,
roundabouts and tram stops pedestrians and commuters will be surrounded by
these moving images. By visiting the inbetweenspaces website and facebook page people will be able to track the movement of images around the cities. A Commonwealth artists' book will also be published online.
Commonwealth considers the relations between objects, homes and people by exploring the movements of individuals and the loss and rearrangement of personal objects. This presentation of images seeks to publicly re-imagine the communal impact of the relocation of countless objects and their owners across streets, cities and states.
Funds from this campaign will contribute to:
- The printing and rigging costs for a large outdoor banner in Federation Square, Melbourne.
- The printing of large banner skins for images in Brisbane and Melbourne cities.
