1.30pm // GATHERING STICKS IN THE CBD AND DEPOSITING THEM AT THE TEMPORARY CINDER-BLOCK WALL AT FEDERATION SQUARE
Sticks will be collected from the city on a daily basis. The cinder-block wall is the meeting point for this venture and will be the site to which the sticks are deposited at the end of each action. This process is open to the participation of anyone who is interested. Over time a pile of sticks will inevitably accumulate, becoming a material index of what has become debris in an urban context.
