About
For more than 24 years, Red Chair has worked alongside independent artists and communities to bring new work to life. At the heart of our work is connection: between artists and audiences, between creative practice and place, and between people coming together to share live experiences. The Keeper Project is a long-form, socially engaged public art project that unfolds in everyday spaces, inviting communities to see their surroundings in new ways. The project places local artists into a temporary role as “Keepers” – observers, collectors, makers and storytellers embedded within the life of a place.
We acknowledge the many Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and honour their Elders past and present.
We respect their deep enduring connection to their lands, waterways, and surrounding clan groups since time immemorial. We cherish the richness of First Nations peoples’ artistic and cultural expressions. We are privileged to gather on this Country and to share knowledge, culture and art, now and with future generations.
