Village Art Project: Unguarded Moments

The Nelson Meers Foundation proudly supported Unguarded Moments, the City of Sydney's Village Art project for Art and About Sydney 2011, produced in partnership with creative studio killanoodle and researcher & producer Sarah Barns.

Unguarded Moments presented a series of site-specific film portraits capturing the changing faces of Millers Point, with projections drawn from documentary films and photographs, featuring past & present residents and workers. The living history of the area’s working port, its waterside workers and its residents was beautifully re-inscribed back into its present day environment, connecting us to the area’s living history and the ties existing within the community today.

The Nelson Meers Foundation had given one of the projectors a home in our Walsh Bay office!
