Join the journey: vacant spaces, hidden stories.
You walk past shop front after shop front with ‘For Lease’ signs. Who even is Lease?
And why do they get all the empty shop fronts?
You look up to the second level of terrace shop fronts. “Oh, but they’re for storage”, your friend says, your Mum says, your friend’s Mum says. But surely all these spaces aren’t for storage.
What stories do they have to tell?
What stories do we have to tell about them?
Brought to life by Tay Conway, William Gammel, Leah Robyn, Rebecca Riggs-Bennett, and the people of Boorloo, UP THERE (Boorloo) is a site responsive audio walking tour of empty and underutilised spaces in the CBD of Boorloo (Perth). This work will interrogate place, space, community and people’s ability to occupy these spaces.
