Whispering Curtain

Permanent Public Artwork, Ngutungka Westlakes, 2023

An artist residency for History Festival 2023 resulted in a permanent Whispering Curtain for the Ngutungka Westlakes community. Whilst occupying the exhibition space Fiona invited the local community to share stories about their Grandmother’s favourite sayings. These were then stitched onto vintage doilies and assembled to form a curtain to hang in the library space.
