WERE BORN TO BE CONNECTED





white marker, acrylic Parspex, charcoal, paper

The work explored the idea of human connection by making visual connections with visiters’ presence through the artist’s mediation.
The silhouettes of visiters were taken by artist and drawn on the acrylic Parspex and wall paperfor three hours in the early evening at the gallery space, which locates in the area, in Melbourne, where ‘alternative’ or ‘muticultural’ residences inhabit.
The visiters also left their thoughts on the wall paper about ‘human connection’.
