OUTPUT Art After Fire is the culmination of collaborations between five Australian and five USA visual artists and creative writers. All were from regions devastated by bushfires in southeast Australia and western USA in 2019-20. Pairs of artists from each country worked together, along with a mentor, to bring their fire experiences to life, and to support bushfire affected communities to rebuild creative industries.
