Sunshines Top 10 Melbourne Street Art and Graffiti – April 2017

I don’t normally review books but in this instance it was a pleasure. I met Yoav in New York years ago just after he published Outdoor Gallery in 2014. The impressive, large hardback book highlights over forty artists across the boroughs of New York and includes interviews. I have seen loads of street art books and most […]

Melbourne based street artist Heesco was commissioned by Visit Victoria to paint five portraits for the World’s 50 Best Restaurant Awards which are held in London every year although this year the massive event was in Melbourne.  In just three and a half days the Mongolian born artist completed all five artworks in Chin Chin lane in […]

ADNATE recently spent a few days painting the rear of a building in Fitzroy.  The three storey mural features the Dalai Lama whom he met in person last year in India. He was very moved after the meeting and wanted honoured to paint him. In his words “I believe the Dalai Lama needs as much […]

Sunshines Top 10 Melbourne Graffiti & Street Art – January 2017

A few months after the Underpass Project Stage One was completed, stage two got underway with more of Melbourne’s finest graffiti writers let loose on the killer wall trackside next to the city – sentimental to many of these guys as noted in the Ironlak article (featuring awesome photos by Pixels) Using a colour scheme […]

Unwell Bunny is one of those super talented artists that has evolved from writing graff pieces to painting large street art murals to having solo exhibitions not just in Australia but Amsterdam, Los Angeles and Paris. Residing in Melbourne, we have been fortunate in this town to see so many of his works, commissions, go […]
