Walpeup Silos
Walpeup, Victoria
2023
This beautiful mural was painted with fellow artist Camilo Delgado on the GrainCorp Walpeup Silos and pays tribute to Harold Thomas Bell, a local Walpeup boy who became a trooper of the 4th Australian Light Horse Regiment after using his cousin’s last name, Wickham, to disguise his true age.
The teenager was shot in the leg during the Battle of Beersheba on October 31 1917 and died of his wounds the following day. He was 16 years and seven months old.
Located in the town of Walpuep on the Mallee Highway, this piece allows viewers to reflect, and to pay respects to the bravery and sacrifices made during the war.
Ship of Wonder
Hawthorn, Victoria
2021
We all dreamed about flying a spaceship, driving a race car or a fire truck or sailing a flying boat or an ice cream truck when we were kids. This school building got turned into the ‘Ship of Wonder’ from the creative ideas by the little children who come and grow here day by day. In here, the ship represents the journey, the relationships and teamwork, representing the school helping humans reach their individual and pluralistic potential. The tower of books depict knowledge, hard work and experience upwards to the ladder of forward thinking and open critical mind, where the bubbles of dreams can take you anywhere. Always in a bright vibrant sky where everyday brings a new beginning.
