Topsy Turvy: Covid – Making Meaning Through Art “A world turned topsy turvy"… "A time to remember rather than to forget"… "The acid test of 21st century health systems"… These are some of the insights offered by health leaders reflecting on their experience of COVID-19. These leaders collaborated with researchers and artists at Maridulu Budyari Gumal (Sydney Partnership for Health, Education, Research and Enterprise (SPHERE)) to produce Topsy Turvy an interactive art exhibition which represents and reflects the bewildering, anxious, caring and sometimes surreal experience of living through, and with, the COVID-19 crisis. The exhibition features artworks created by health leaders, and members of the public who participated in the project. Visitors are invited to contribute to the exhibition by creating a visual collage to represent their own experiences of life during the pandemic, or to leave a message of hope or reflection on the wishing wall. Artists and researchers from the project will be present at the exhibition each day, to facilitate visitor art making and chat about their experiences of creating the work.
