Museum of Brisbane Artist in Residence

Back to Activation

Place-based storytelling.

Please note: This residency project has been re-engaged for a special pop-up installation in Queen Street Mall from Saturday 4 November – Monday 27  November 2023. During the pop-up, visitors can reflect on Brisbane locations – both public and private – that are significant to them. 

From 7 August - 1 September we were Artist in Residence at Museum of Brisbane, responding to the exhibition themes explored in Making Place: 100 Views of Brisbane through a participatory project involving the wider Brisbane community.

During the residency at Museum of Brisbane, our team spoke with visitors about important memories of Brisbane locations. Responses were collected through a custom-made centrepiece designed and assembled using our signature computer and machine assisted approach.

It is envisaged the data collected will be used as part of future experiments in design-led storytelling. We thank all participants who participated in this open-ended collaboration.
