Lockdown Laundry

​

A nation-wide community public art project set up for people to tell their lockdown stories and then peg these up for others to read.

​

Lockdown Laundry welcomed all New Zealanders to emerge from their bubbles to share their ups and downs with their community.

​

All memories shared were typed up on a typewriter and hung out to dry on the line for others to read, including during a roving 6 week exhibition in Wellington.

​

Between July 2020 and May 2021 Lockdown Laundry travelled the motu from Whangarei to Christchurch, Auckland to Westport &  Wanaka, and many more places in between. Participants shared 750+ lockdown memories with their communities.
