Part of this years aims for MarshART was to have art on the marsh but also to creep into the town which the marsh surrounds. This was driven by a want to reach more than an invited audience, or more than an audience that would seek out art, but for there to be art on the street which people can happen upon in their daily travels.
Katie Breckon of Mowanjum Arts & Cultural Centre worked with young people from Derby and Mowanjum to create some large scale portraits and scenes. Local photographer Dominic Flutter to was also approached and his nature photo's of often small creatures blown up in scale and turned into paste ups inserted into Derby town streets, walls and power boxes.
