The Opportunity
This exhibition features fascinating archival records, photos and footage that captured the events and challenges from the railway's first 60 years, including its impact on First Nations people.
The Outcome
The graphics employ a limited colour palette of red and orange hues, inferring the backdrop of the train line's inception in the Australian outback.
The graphics needed to complement the black and white photography that makes up the exhibition in both the form of displayed artefacts and wall decals that decorate the space. The primary exhibition graphic reflects these visual decisions, combining red soil and black and white photographic elements, composed in a scene that summarises the context of the exhibition.
Conclusion
Working closely with the NAA exhibition project team, Artikel delivered the overall exhibition layout and placement, as well as the design of the graphics and illustrative work featured throughout the gallery space.
