2024 #AllAboard Pride Tram
Artwork for LGBTQIA -themed tram, created in partnership with Yarra Trams, JOY Media, Midsumma, and the Victorian Pride Centre. The #AllAboard Tram, a moving sign of inclusiveness, is set to make everyone’s daily travels more colourful and friendly. It can be seen on tram routes 11, 86, and 96, bringing a sense of pride and inclusivity to Melbourne’s historic tram network.
A simple sticker can represent so much. A public display of support. An unapologetic symbol of pride. A powerful statement of unity. My artwork is a playful and nostalgic take on all these ideas – envisioning a tram fully covered in optimistic pride stickers. I wanted to provide visibility to the many identities, genders, sexualities, cultures and abilities of the LGBTQIA+ community, many of which are often hidden in the public discourse. In celebrating plurality and diversity, I hope to truly welcome everyone all aboard.
