Dock-Hearts up and running
03 May 2011
Local art project Dock-Hearts was successfully launched last month.
NewQuay resident Merrin Eirth has an evolving project emerging in the window of local cleaning contractor Leo Papagiannis in Rakaia Way.
Merrin said of the launch at Berth on April 13: “When we took our walk to the site, the most exciting aspect was the interaction the children demonstrated re my sample of the magic light wall. They had a ball and wanted to stay on for some time afterwards to play with it.”
“Passers-by seem to be engaging with the project, with plenty of folks peering in to see what is going on. I couldn’t be more delighted.”
“I am hoping that during this next phase I will be able to encourage some interest from owners of vacant shops and similar stakeholders to come forward and become involved in further art residency/business partnerships.”
