The EyeSaw exhibition, aimed at highlighting issues surrounding humanity and equality, was dealt a cruel blow on Friday night when it was vandalised.
Studio one8one7’s ’Munroe Griss’ – a giant plastic pig collecting donations for the charity, Mission Australia – was smashed and looted of around $200 that had been collected. Other exhibits and posters were also vandalised and gratified, despite their messages of peace and humanity.
The organisers hope that next year will see the exhibition move to a more central location in Sydney, increasing the number of visitors and reducing the likeliehood of a similar occurrence.
Indesignlive.com would like to encourage all our readers who believe that design can make a difference to show their support for this worthwhile cause by donating to Mission Australia.
