Contemporary artist Joel Moore (aka Vans the Omega), sculptor Pimpisa Tinpalit and singer-songwriter Jess Ribeiro, meet the families and friends of the missing person of whom they will each create a portrait.
Pimpisa and Joel begin the process of developing their artworks, discovering personal connections to the stories of their absent subjects along the way.
Jess begins developing her song about Elaine, drawing on her own experience for inspiration. Meanwhile, Joel has finalised the plan and location for his mural of Ryan.
Joel arrives in Cadell and applies his first licks of paint, Pimpisa continues working on her sculpture and Jess reflects on the personal toll the task is taking.
