Making Limen; Forlano Design consults to Missions Connect to build the Limen exhibition

Earlier this year, Forlano Design was commissioned to take a design from the curatorial team at Missions Connect and resolve it to ensure it was built in a way to suit their budget, time constraints, and structural requirements. The works were for ‘Limen’, an exhibition telling the stories of three Stolen Generation Survivors; Edith DeGiambattista, Tonji Hansen, and Tim Flowers.

Telling important historical stories deeply connected to place

Reflecting place and experience through design

Combined with the video and audio works, quotes from the Survivors, and other materials, the exhibition sensitively tells the stories of the experience of these three brave Survivors. Thanks to all who participated in the project, but most importantly to those who agreed to share their experiences.

“Limen: At the fence” is showing at the State Library of Western Australia until February 28th. Links to the exhibition can be seen here and the launch event here.
