Peter Foward, Mr Jailer, You’re a Victim Too 2008 Acrylic, oil, oilstick, collage and permanent marker on canvas. 152cm (w) x 121cm (h)
Truth Untruth is a project where an audience can engage with others, using a visual art-based format. Viewers are encouraged to add their own script or marks directly onto the works.
The project has become a visual link between dominant Australian culture and new arrivals to this country, people of all ages, fine and street art, view-only and participatory art.
Australia aside from major centers, still broadly exists in an essentially Anglo/Celtic world. The displacement of people from regions of conflict is seen nightly and concerns both sides of a cultural divide. Truth Untruth attempts to cross this divide.
