'KIN"
The Augmented Reality Mural that comes to life
Fenwick St. Geelong
These three young leaders will be recognised in a new installation created by Laura Alice, an extraordinary artist who has created a name for herself through her inky paintings and street art. She has a passion for using art to share untold stories and through this project she highlights the incredible diversity of the Geelong community, shining a light on some of the young people quietly leading the way in our region.
The installation features portraits of Tarryn, Quinn and Mutheinchri surrounded by artistic elements created by the vibrant communities that hold them – Tarryn’s mob, the Friend of Cowies Creek and the Drawn Together artistic collective. But just like the young people pictured, the installation involves more than is obvious on first glance. When visitors point their smart phone at the artwork, they will be delighted by a magical augmented-reality show. The wall is brought to life by beautiful animations interwoven with music and the voices of the young leaders.
