The Shop of Opportunity, 2019
Boronia Mall
The Shop of Opportunity was developed in collaboration with Knox City Council and Vic Health as a large scale installation on site within Boronia Mall, accompanied by a series activations and events, as part of the broader Framed By Gender project, a month-long installation and festival occupying parts of an ageing mall in Melbourne’s sprawling eastern suburbs. The project used art, installation, performance and collective events to explore themes of feminism, community, suburbia, public space and gender equality. The installation and events collectively aimed to explore how gender themes play out in public spaces, and engaged Boronia community members in a participatory discussion about these themes.
