What is the view from your window?
We’re collecting snapshots of the views from our residents’ homes during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
Your photographs taken from your windows will be stitched together, creating a fictional landscape of the gardens and streetscapes outside Moreland homes.
View from the Window project is part of the ‘My Personal Pandemic’ art activities for Moreland residents. The project is a collaboration by Moreland City Council Artist in Residence Kitty Owens, Cultural Development Resource Officer, film-maker Alberto di Troia, and the residents of Moreland.
