Overview

The City Speaks Softly

The City Speaks Softly is a collaboration between artists Melissa Spratt and Tal Fitzpatrick that uses the comforting nature of textiles to explore how art can soften our experience of public space.

This socially engaged project seeks to shed light on how art might create moments of gentle sensorial reprieve. Utilising street pole banners as a broadly accessible site for a creative intervention with the potential to gently surprise audiences.

Artworks will be installed on street poles around Broadbeach Cultural Precinct, Burleigh Esplanade, HOTA, Kurrawa Park and Broadbeach for the duration of the festival.
