Person to person: Stories from Woolloomooloo
Wednesday May 20, 2026
Wednesday May 20, 2026
"Person to person" is a 70-minute panoramic video exhibit in the 2026 Sydney Biennale by Sydney-based artists Merilyn Fairskye and Michiel Dolk which shares the rich history of Woolloomooloo — a pocket of public housing nestled right next to what has become the playgrounds and luxury apartments of the rich on Sydney Harbour — told through first-hand stories of local residents.
In this interview with Green Left's Peter Boyle, Fairskye shares the background to this exhibition and insights that could be valuable to other public housing communities in inner-Sydney battling a relentless drive by developers and governments to privatise what they only see as prime real estate.
"Person to person" is on display at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which itself overlooks Woolloomooloo, until June 14, 2026. Entry is free.
