Found,out

'Found, Out' was an invitation to the Unley community to physically interact with the environment and share thoughts, future visions and values about Unley's parks.

Focussing on the natural textures and materials of the area, the community engaged with the space, each other and the council through creative activities.

The workshops utilised natural objects in the parks to print textures in clay, as tools or as objects.

Professional artists assisted communities to reconnect with nature through the creation of ephemeral sculptural artworks while undertaking novel research methods for  Unley 'placemaking'.

"I do not have enough or the right words to summarise how we all feel at Council about the Found, out project.
It was so well thought through and beautifully delivered.
......... The interaction with the community was amazing and the legacy of this work will resonate for a long time. Positive, intimate, perceptive, inclusive , welcoming, creative community engagement.
All the feedback has been so positive. ...............
My special thanks to the inspirational Morag Cook whose project management skills are …well, awesome is not too strong a word.
 
Thanks on behalf of the Unley community."
