Introduction
The Kevin Taylor Legacy provides creative individuals or groups the opportunity of a $9,000 supported creative grant program with landscape architecture and urban design firm TCL.
The Kevin Taylor Legacy has been established in the memory of Kevin Taylor, a founding director of TCL. Throughout his career Kevin continually explored and challenged how we interact with, interpret, and represent the Australian landscape. He was also intrigued by how communities and individuals relate to the civic condition.
Dedicated to the art of landscape architecture, urban design and social planning throughout his career, and employing a sensitive and immersive approach to design, Kevin’s work has left an important and valuable legacy that is integral to TCL’s current practice. By offering this grant, TCL are seeking to continue and expand these fields of inquiry in relation to current practices and conditions.
The successful applicant will receive a one-off project grant of $9,000 to work with TCL staff to develop their project and outcomes over a 3 - 6 month period, between February and October. The creative grant will culminate in an exhibition, performance or event. Applicants will be assisted in the documentation of their work which will be included in ongoing and future publications about the Legacy.
This annual opportunity is open to creative individuals or groups from all professions, industries or trades who wish to explore our relationship to landscape and the civic condition.
TCL will provide funds in the form of food, drinks and either the Melbourne or Adelaide studio as a venue to host the event or exhibition.
