GRASSROOTS, NEVER DIES, WORLDWIDE

Women’s football takes centre stage in a powerful new billboard artwork by textile artist Nicole Chui, now showing at The Substation Billboard Gallery.

Created in collaboration with local Melbourne club Brunswick Zebras FC, Grassroots Never Dies, Worldwide combines photography and embroidery to celebrate the strength, resilience and community spirit behind grassroots women’s football.

The project builds on Chui’s original Grassroots Never Dies series, developed during an artist residency in London, and honours the people and collective effort that shape community sport and create lasting change.
