The
project was concerned with the intervention of Italianate Victorian
architectural facades with coloured monochrome shaped canvas panels
and styrofoam inserts. The project was based around the 19th century
architecture of the historic West End, in Fremantle Western Australia.
This site has a unique and large collection of buildings built in
the 1890's. The coloured inserts(shaped stretchers) would fit into
the architecture so as to leave the fabric of the buildings undamaged,
and offset the aesthetic of the facade. Preparation for this project
commenced in late 2002 and culminated in the Fremantle Festival
in late 2003. The works were on public display for 3-4 weeks.
