Oh my bloomin' gosh! Walking down Murray St. early on Saturday morning BAM .. there it was! However you feel about street art I really can't see how anyone would view this as less than fabulouso. Painted last month during the FormPUBLIC 2015 project by Mexican artist Curiot the complexity of this huge scale work is astounding, the subject matter.. koalas munching on eucalyptus leaves couldn't be more appropriate. In the shot below as well as the brilliant blue sky I enjoyed the curved mural following the rounded lines of the QV.1 building behind..
... and how lucky, the eucalyptus tree across the road, mixing reality with art :)
Below looking down Murray St. to the city centre showing the grand scale of this project with city skyscrapers in the far background. The Hertz building never looked so good! Hope you all had a brilliant Mother's day and are ready for the week ahead, happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..
What a delightful design!
ReplyDeleteOh, delightful indeed!! I love it, Grace!! And what a terrific capture for the day!! Hope your week is off to a great start!!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous, especially the blue tint as you go down. Very clever getting the "real thing" in the same shot!
ReplyDeleteWow! That's giant!
ReplyDeleteMexican Koalas!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat really looks as though it might have been part of the architect's design; it fits in so naturally.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, Grace! It looks like the wall was made specifically for this piece!
ReplyDeleteI knew that you would check out the youtube on my train noise mural - it's great isn't it?
I love colors in these things, but it is really an eye-catching work!
ReplyDeleteDo you think anyone would notice if I stole that one?
ReplyDeleteThis really is quite spectacular. And, I think it would fit in Arizona very well, koalas and all.
ReplyDeleteI love koalas...in any form!
ReplyDeleteWhat detail! Tom The Backroads Traveller
ReplyDeleteWhat a splendid design- and it's so big!
ReplyDeleteThat is really amazing! Great!
ReplyDeleteThis beautiful piece of art reminds me of Mexico City; how I love this. It is spectacular!!
ReplyDeleteMagnificent artwork.
ReplyDeleteOK, Grace, you've got me. This is spectacular. I like art, not graffiti. This is exceptional art.
ReplyDeleteit's amazing, i love it!
ReplyDeleteThis piece integrates beautifully into the design of the building. The gradation of color behind the black figures lends itself to subtly. Not as bombastic as it could be.
ReplyDeleteI really really like this one. The koala looks almost to have an owl face.
ReplyDeleteI like this art LOT!

Grace, you find the most amazing things! Love this mural.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is so incredible, very pretty artwork. I had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend although busy as it flew by too fast.
ReplyDeleteGreat artwork indeed, very nice images!
ReplyDeleteFabulous. An Aztec koala. Or maybe a Kachina Koala. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteThe scale makes it look a little out of place and overwhelming but the detail is astounding. I expect people stand for ages there looking up and enjoying the pictures.
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! Stunning!! More, please.
ReplyDeleteAmazing design here. I like it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful contrast this decorated pillar provides to the stark whit horizontal lines of the building. Very clever architecture.
ReplyDeleteSo unexpected to see Mexican art in Perth!
