Dr Barbara Piscitelli AM Children's Art Archive
The Dr Barbara Piscitelli AM Children's Art Archive collection was developed by Dr Piscitelli, a world leader in early childhood education. Since 2005 Dr Piscitelli AM has conducted workshops in communities throughout Queensland - collecting images created by children about themselves.
Since the collection has come a part of the State Library of Queensland's John Oxley Library, it has continued to grow through the Children's Picture Diary project. This selection showcases the work of young Indigenous children living in remote communities.
These children immersed themselves in paint, print and drawing experiences over a week-long period. In many cases elders and family joined in to share in a rich intergenerational experience.
