RECLAIM THE VOID

This project is gathering terrific pace, over 70 community workshop rug hubs have already run as well as 3 on country camps, complemented by 24 schools all producing the colourful, recycled rugs for the final artwork, composed of some 4000-5000 individual rugs.   More than 1 million people have been reached on socials and the project has been widely talked about in the media.  As the rug contributions roll in a new aspect of the project is coming to life, a ‘rugalogue’, the stories of the rugs are being collated as a digital tool to explore within the final WA Museum exhibition, a rich tapestry of stories that speaks to the collective desire to respect and wish to care for country.
