Home Art

Overview

Low-carbon and low-key, Home Art is a City of Melbourne initiative attempting to bring together members of the local community to be creative in the name of environmentalism. Locals will be involved in the creation of a piece of performance art, and then perform it in their homes. You can witness these artworks as part of an hour-long tour, which will be dramatically narrated by a 'local personality'.

While one may or may not be skeptical about the quality of the art, this event has the possibility to bring excitement, creativity and meaning into the lives of many. If you live in North Melbourne, this is an opportunity for you to connect to your community. If you are into the environment, support this program which aims to be artistic without being wasteful. If you believe in publicly funded and developed art, this is the event for you.

The Low-carbon art tours on December 1-2 are sold out, but screenings of the performances will take place in Federation Square December 15-17. Still from Geetha Raju and Aditi Chetty's 2011 performance.
