Port Arthur Visitor Centre

Convict timeline

For Port Arthur's Visitor Centre 

The Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA) wanted to encapsulate key information about worldwide convict migration, punishment and reform and show how Tasmania's significant penal settlement history fits in to the global picture. This infographic, showing dates, maps, facts, figures and key characters and events was completely hand written and illustrated. This seven metre mural artwork was launched as part of the Port Arthur Visitor's Centre refurbishment, alongside amazing artwork from Hobart's Sam Lyne and Rachel Tribout.
