BIG SQUARE EYE is the world premiere of a massive multimedia artwork that delves into the mind's eye of young people from the suburbs of Brisbane and throughout regional Queensland.  BIG SQUARE EYE crosses generations and geography to present an hour-lone detonation of young language in moving image.

BIG SQUARE EYE's 15 outstanding young artists have been selected from over 150 young people across Queensland and have received intensive mentoring support by one of five media artists working with the project. Fifteen three minute video-works representing young people's visions have been produced.

“Teenagers are not satisfied just to live in the world: they constantly transform it through their physical and mental mutations.  And that spells trouble!  Fascinating stimulating trouble” Gaetano Marzotto – President, Pitti Imagine

BIG SQUARE EYE has been supported by Perc Tucker Regional Gallery and William Ross State High School.
