| I love St Kilda is an interactive website diary or blog which gathers simple observations, images and comments about forgotten or largely overlooked moments in everyday St Kilda.
As a catalogue or archive of these moments and memories this work sits as an uncomfortable counterpoint to the cacophony of voices arguing about gentrification.
The site also documents a series of ephemeral works that are surprise interventions in the streets. These temporary public art works refer to stencil art and graffiti using discarded furniture and cardboard boxes as the canvas. Magnetic text is also placed on lampposts and fire hydrants and is often re-aranged by passersby.
The final stage of this project is a series of art objects made from discarded items gleaned from the streets. |
