Craig Walsh has taken video portraits of Alice Springs locals and they are currently being edited into a new artwork. The public are invited to come and view Craig’s latest work HOME (Alice Springs):
7.30 – 9.30pm: Thursday 12, Friday 13 and Saturday 14 May 2011
Todd St, Alice Springs, near KFC
This site has been described in the media, most memorably by Nicholas Rothwell writing for the Australian. His article was published on 19th February this year:

The infamous wall near KFC on Todd St will speak up with a diverse portrait of local people’s views on what “home” means to them. HOME can be seen as a counterpoint to the misery portrayed in the media and a way of reinterpreting and transforming the so called “Apartheid zones”.
