Futurama 2.0 is a utopian vision in which everyone has a chance to shape where we live.

Created while I was artist in residence at Fairfield City Museum and Gallery, this mini model city was made with the help of local high school students and kids aged 4-12, and adults from both the Fairfield and broader Sydney communities.

All together more than 50 people answered my call to come make their mark on the city.

We made Futurama 2.0 together.
