By artist: Stephanie Quirk and supported by students from West Wollongong Public School, Lindsay Park Public School and Keira High School.
To be unveiled outside the Wollongong Town Hall during Culture Mix (Saturday 21 October).
A word from the artist:
“The schools embarked on a journey to celebrate and explore cultural identities and connections. I held workshops which ignited conversations around culture and belonging, with students exploring the vibrant threads that compose their individual and collective heritage.
One student’s insight, that culture was about belonging, gave rise to the project’s title and embodies the essence of the artwork.
As project leader, I foresee “You Belong Here, I Belong Here” as more than art – it’s a catalyst for conversations.”
