The making of Sydney - We Need to Talk!

We talk to Sydney artist Wendy Murray, who won the Fisher Library Printer in Residence scholarship. During her 8 week residency Wendy used letterpress and digital printing processes to produce Sydney - we need to talk!, a collection of short, accessible interventions about the politics of urbanisation in Sydney and beyond.

The book contains 8 essays and we talk to some of the authors. Wendy responded to each of the essays by drawing an image she felt expressed the ideas and emotions within the words.

The book will be launched in conjunction with the Festival of Urbanism.

This City Road Special Project was recorded in the Fisher Library at the University of Sydney on 9th September 2018. It was edited on 10th September 2018 using only the onsite Fisher Library field recordings.
