Take Me To The River

This exhibition explored what the Perth waterfront could have looked like if some of the estimated 200 proposed plans to develop the Swan River had gone through. Some of these plans date as far back as 1833 and let us see how the relationship of European Australian culture has changed throughout the years,  due in part to the connection of the great Swan River.

The exhibition displayed pictures that show what an alternate Perth in 2015 would have looked liked if these proposed plans had gone through, forever changing the Swan River as we know it.
