WHAT IF faces from the past were visible again, watching us in our streets and laneways? Sourced from archival documentary footage, intimate portraits of past residents and workers are projected onto the walls and buildings of Millers Point, capturing the fleeting nature of life and the dramatic changes that have occurred to this historic precinct.
Working closely with film archivists and the local community, creative studio Killanoodle, in collaboration with researcher and producer Sarah Barns, have sourced extraordinary portraits, accompanied by a fascinating blog. Wander through the area and then catch interviews with residents, oral histories and extended footage online www.unguardedmoments.com.au
To see the projections begin at Abraham Mott Hall, walk down Kent Street towards Walsh Bay and Windmill Steps, then along Hickson Road towards Sydney Harbour Bridge, where you’ll finish up at the roundabout near Pottinger Street.
As this project contains projections we recommend viewing after 5.00pm
