Fly Me Up To Where You Are

Fly Me Up to Where You Are - reflecting the dreams of young Porirua people 15 August - 8 September 2013

Inspired by the ancient Tibetan tradition of prayer flags, Tiffany Singh has collaborated with Porirua secondary students and the wider community, to develop this multimedia flag installation which looks at the political issues and biases that young people face in their community and Aotearoa today.

During a one day artist run workshop at Whitireia, Tiffany Singh worked with students to draw on their planning and ideas. Each student created their own flag which is part of this shared exhibition and shows their ownership of community, awareness of political issues and solutions for the future out into the Porirua community and the world.

This exhibition also features the photographic work of Mikel Taylor and the moving images of Helen Donnelly, which document the students creation of the installation at the Whitireia Campus, Porirua.
