#NeighbourhoodWatch is a street art project for Banyule Council’s Art in Public Spaces Programphotographed by Heidelberg-based artist Aldona Kmieć. The project explores and tests our imagination and memory of familiar places. Through her camera lens, Aldona records the familiar architecture of Greensborough streets in a series of tightly cropped frames, pushing the subject and its meaning into almost unrecognisable abstract form.
All photographs were taken within around 500 metres from their installed location – can you guess where? Post it on socials and tag #NeighbourhoodWatch
Documenting an exciting close-up perspective of the suburb, the artist encourages reflection and awareness of the subtleties and intricacies of our surroundings that often go unnoticed. These obscure nooks and overlooked corners form a collection of images that offer an ‘outsider view’ of this North Eastern Melbourne suburb.
