No Forwarding Address: Homelessness Through Our Eyes

Photo: Troy Brabham
'Perhaps what is wrong with this country is that we have lost our our generosity of spirit. We are missing our sense of empathy.
Maybe it is out there somewhere beyond the city lights. I hope these pictures will help bring it back.'
- Troy Brabham, Artist
From 5th -12th August 2007 the HPLC in collaboration with the Future Focus Group presented a powerful photographic exhibition capturing life through the eyes of those who have experienced homelessness. The exhibition featured over 80 images and was officially launched by Tim Costello with back up vocals from the Choir of Hard Knocks.
We are very grateful for the generous assistance of a number of organisations: Allens Arthur Robinson, ANZ, Australia Post, The Colour Factory, Committee For Melbourne, Federation Square, Fentons Communications, KPMG, Maunsells, Metlink, Multiplex, RACV, Rio Tinto and VicUrban and in particular, the mentor team.
