faces of two artists laying down with heads touching at the top

Elizabeth Woods and Kevin Leong are Australian contemporary artists working in Australia and Europe.

Their socially-engaged projects are developed around compelling ideas that invite and structure creative responses – ideas which allow intentional communities to grow from the new relationships formed between artists, writers, designers, community/interest groups, organisations, institutions and government. Their practice builds sympathetic, collaborative relationships with hosting environments while producing content that is socially-active and engaging for non-participating audiences. Their large scale projects have multi-year development cycles, produce multiple simultaneous public outcomes and can involve hundreds of creative participants.

Past projects include: The Social Space in Brisbane, Australia, which used radical hospitality to create a community meeting space through a free café; and See you tomorrow, at the Sirius Arts Centre in Cobh, Co. Cork, where they developed a series of public actions focusing on the collective visions for the town’s future.

They are currently working with Common Ground in the Lodge on a long-term project, The Caretakers’ Residency.
