UNFRAMED IS AN INDEPENDENT CREATIVE EXPERIMENT,
FOR PUBLIC PLACES IN COOLUM BEACH, KICKING OFF 10 SEPTEMBER 2016.

WHAT IS UNFRAMED

A curated ‘art in public place exhibition’ with site specific installations of artwork through the laneways and buildings connecting Jack Morgan Park to David Low Way at Coolum Beach. Pedestrian areas can make art activity more accessible with the existence of visual aesthetics allowing the quality of the space to increase, creating participation and interaction whilst broadening the limits of art.

(This is not a ‘mural’ project but a contemporary public art project, exploring the use of outdoor areas and artistic practice)

After an initial artist callout (open to all contemporary artists), 5 chosen artists will be invited to create a contemporary artwork that responds to the space (these may vary from 3‐dimensional, projection, ephemeral, 2‐dimensional and/or installation, sound installation, green sustainable installation/artwork, film, dance). It is anticipated that there will be both local and statewide artist involved in the initial project for 2015 (80% local artists). The project directors will work closely with the artists and landlords to best connect the artwork with the space.
