A mural originally shortlisted for installation at the Alice Springs Town Pool (ASALC). An hour before being due to present to the public art committee, the CEO of the Alice Springs Town Council (Robert Jennings) pulled the presentation from the running, stating that the proposal was “too political”. In lieu of installation at ASALC, it was installed as a poster version on the Watch This Space billboard.

Thanks to Sanchia Scott, Liam Grealy and Kumalie Riley for consultation.
