Through a unique research project and partnership with Australian National University, Federation University and the Art Gallery of Ballarat, the Eureka Centre presents Ken Searles' monumental painting, Ballarat 1998.

His resulting painting is featured alongside an interactive digital representation of the work to allow for community-generated interpretation informed by local knowledge, lived experience and personal memory.
