The Other Plate, Adderton, Brisbane, 2019

The Other Plate

As part of A Fierce Hope, Adderton, Brisbane.

Artwork developed through a year-long residency with OzHarvest.

12 Sep – 3 May 2019/20

Group show included paired social enterprise and artist: Happy Paws Happy Hearts + Donna Marcus, Hummingbird House + Maryann Talia Pau and Ranu James, Inala Wangarra + Robert Andrew, Outland Denim + Belinda Smith, OzHarvest + Elizabeth Willing, White Wreath Association + Dan Elborne

Taking its inspiration from the enterprising, socially conscious women of Adderton's past, A Fierce Hope pairs six social enterprises with six contemporary artists to explore that enterprise's ethos and work. These six innovative and passionate initiatives, galvanised by hope, are working to make a difference: to inform, to invite community engagement, to empower people to find their voice for advocacy in the community, nation and beyond. The artworks, produced over a period of 18 months, reveal the collaboration, commitment and ingenuity of the artists and their paired South East Queensland enterprises in thought-provoking ways.
