placement 3 - defiance, feminism, empathy

Here we are with the cup based on a photograph of Footscray graffiti, that Mari sent me. It spoke to her of learning and education.

here is the original photograph, courtesy of Mari:



So I wandered around Footscray till I found the place . . . . . 

finding gorgeous lights . . . 

bulldogs everywhere . . . 

a great mural!

and then finally the right place!


 and then photographed the cup in that place . .  









then I left it there!


goodbye little cup!
farewell!

Message in a Cup
Messages and stories of learning in Footscray are collected and then written onto the insides of one hundred handmade blue cups. The cups are placed in Footscray during BluScray events to be found by people and taken home. The project gives voice to peoples experiences and understandings of learning and shares these ideas with others in the city of Footscray.



Message in a Cup is part of BluScray,  a program of blue-themed arts and cultural events held throughout 2016 to celebrate Victoria University’s Centenary in collaboration with Maribyrnong City Council for the Footscray University Town initiative.
