At peacetime, but against a backdrop of growing global conflict, Peace and Quiet revealed the contradictory and contested nature of peace through a collection of perspectives and gestures from South-East Queenslanders situated on the borders of unrest.

Led by Elizabeth Woods and Kevin Leong, Peace and Quiet is a series of six projects, produced in partnership with the State Library of Queensland, as collaborations with members of the public, artists, community and interest groups:

• White on White
• Peaceful Protest
• Signs, Signals and Semaphores
• Words are All I Have with Beth Jackson and Louis Lim
• Peaceful Landscapes
• White-Out

The program won the 2016 Galleries and Museum Achievement Award for Engagement, awarded by Museums Galleries Queensland.
