Join artist and architecture academic Dr Sandra Kaji-O'Grady and Lismore Regional Gallery curator, Kezia Geddes, to discuss work in Lismore Encore.
We have two time slots available for the community to attend, 12pm and 4.30pm.
Lismore Encore includes ideas for Lismore by esteemed architects, as well as by Lismore-based artists who have embodied knowledge and experience of the flood, all responding to a brief to design for Lismore's future. The brief asked contributors to imagine Lismore into the future, outside of the politics of today. It asked participants to posit ways of re-occupying the existing CBD that not only deal with regular flooding, but envisage what sort of governance, ownership, economies, and technologies enable these new ways of occupying.
The project is intended to create a forum for ideas, be they practical or so ambitious they might be difficult or even impossible to apply in the current climate. It offers for ingenuity at all scales, from the small intervention to the vast re-imagining.
