“Scratchin’ the Surface”

Raising young female voices through the frame of sustainability.
In partnership with Northside Community Services, funded by TCCS ACT Government.

Scope: Using only recycled materials, this street art workshop focused on 6 x 16-23 year old females from various schools across Canberra, workshopping the theme “Raise young female voices within the frame of sustainability”. I asked the question “What change would you like to see in the world, and what’s stopping it?”
Timeline: Two hour brainstorming workshop before full day workshop at Gunners Place. Artwork was on display at Ainslie + Gorman gallery during the course of Surface Street Art Festival, March 2022.
