Generosity: Interactive SMS Projection exhibited by Visionary Images Melbourne 2008

Visionary Images:  

Visionary Images artists collaborate with young people to create art works that explore and express ideas and experiences through exciting visual, design and media art.

In 2011 Visionary Images will be working on the Bass Coast with local young people aged 15 – 25 to develop and create public art. This project is called R3 and you can check out the project blog at

We expect that the project will run 2 days per week and it would be great if you could attend at least once a week.

It’s free and no experience is necessary!
