About the event
The project pairs local artists with people living on the dementia journey. Artists spend time listening to their stories, learning about their lives, memories, passions and experiences, and then interpret those stories through their own artistic practice.
The resulting artworks provide a unique opportunity for the community to see beyond a diagnosis and connect with the person, their story and their identity.
The local artists involved in this year’s exhibition are:
Bronwyn Copeland
