VISIONARY IMAGES > VISUAL CULTURE + SOCIAL CHANGE

Visionary Images is an arts and social change organisation, dedicated to the artistic engagement, cultural development and social inclusion of communities who face significant hardship. Through creative collaboration with artists, skills increase, confidence builds and meaningful connections are made. Together we creatively address challenging life circumstances and transform ideas, concerns and lived experiences into contemporary, thought -provoking artworks.

Our exhibitions take place in highly visible public spaces — taking art into the streets and everyday life.

 We operate as a creative social collaboration that results in the exhibition of the artworks that capture broad and diverse community attention and contribute to realising effective, positive social solutions.

Visionary Images’ project LIGHT_UP_3121 worked with the community who live on and around the North Richmond Housing Estate and the community who access the Medically Supervised Injecting Room.

In workshops the community came together in conversation about LOVE. Very much “what the world needs now…”.  They collaboratively created an animated artwork that was first exhibited as an outdoor projection on one of the estate towers. View it here and join us to feel the love.

A NEW TEMPORARY HOME

A big change for us in late 2025  was the loss of our studio of 20+ years which was provided by City of Yarra as part of the Room to Create program. This generous support over many years ensured that Visionary Images could provide a creative home for thousands of community members.

The Council temporarily relocated Visionary Images to the basement of the Richmond Library until April 2026. Understandably it’s been extremely destabilising for the organisation and April is quickly approaching.

We are currently seeking to expand our partner base and reach with communities in the search for a new home for the studio and would love to hear from you if you are able to assist in any way.
