LOUD SKY presents the experiences of survival in the aftermath of trauma through contemporary art; for those immediately affected, family members, and the wider community within the context of the Hunter, a region profoundly impacted by institutional child abuse.
LOUD SKY features newly commissioned works by Hunter-based artists Lottie Consalvo, Peter Gardiner, Fiona Lee, Damien Linnane, and Clare Weeks that explore loss, survival, and resilience. These works have forged a way of processing this historical trauma and stand as a form of activism against the injustices of those affected.
