my own private neon oasis is a contemporary art project that was located at Sunnybank 12 September – 31 October 2011. Presenting new work by local, national and international artists, own private neon oasis has been inspired by the dynamic histories and diverse cultures of Sunnybank. It has also been an opportunity to discover or rediscover this unique Brisbane community. Immersed in the local ambience and not knowing the language, it's easy to be a tourist in your own backyard. For my own private neon oasis, Sunnybank has been a kind of muse.

In association with the exhibition, the 160-page full-colour publication my own private neon oasis features essays with Chinese translations and documentation of the artists' and designers' works.
