Mandy Nolan’s Soapbox: Why Being Seen is Beautiful

There is something profound about being seen. Being accepted and loved for exactly who you are. It’s life changing. It’s simple. It’s transformative. But some people don’t get to experience this. Nearly half of transgender Australians have attempted suicide.That data tells the very real impact of discrimination, stigma and lack of access to gender-affirming surgery.

Narani Henson, Byron Bay

I did an art installation for Byron Bay Surf Festival on Saturday (October 27) in Railway Park and it was about raising awareness for Positive Change for Marine Life.

It was a great piece and I had a lot of great feedback about it. It was really interactive and patrons got to walk through the plastic drops and read the facts about plastic that was attached to some of the bottles.

But someone has taken it, stolen it, taken it home… ?

Help has anyone seen my art installation? I was hoping that Echonetdaily could help me find it. If any of your readers know of its whereabouts please email me at [email protected].
