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.

Cosmos' Universe
Mandurah Western Australia 
2023
Best Exterior Mural 2023 - Australian Street Art Awards Finalist

Finished mural in WA at the Mandurah Library for the @city_of_mandurah Arts Festival. ‘Cosmos’ aims to celebrate the joy of reading and the world of imagination. This is a colourful and enchanting visual journey, enticing passersby to immerse themselves in the magic of books and literary resources.
The central subject is immersed in a universe of knowledge, symbolising the book as the heart of knowledge and learning.

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.

Today's Devine Comedy
Braeside, Australia
2022
Inspired by the reflection of what our oceans are rapidly becoming a soup of death and destruction. Without it, we can’t exist, is that simple. The rapid devastation by the fishing industry, the islands of plastic floating in vast amounts around the globe, the high levels of mercury and other chemicals found in the fish and seafood we eat is not a joke anymore. The ocean is dying. This work is an introspection of going through purgatory, hopefully back to heaven, the heaven on earth that the ocean have always been before we existed.

The Messenger
Frankston, Australia
2021
This mural is an open story. To me, the boy is the last human remaining after our societal system made the planet collapse. He will remain in his child form forever, wandering the universe in an eternal sunset of ever evolving reverberating colours. The whale, the last largest mammal to exists continues to carry the link of interdependence between water, earth and air where most creatures used to coexist. The bonsai tree, an ancient Saman, contains the relative notion of time and space; of the actuality of the here and of the now.

Dark days are over
Hoppers CrossingAustralia
2021
This mural is the manifestation of joy that resonates and bursts when we reconnect with nature which is the source of all that exists.
At a personal level this mural encompasses various profound symbolisms from the bright blooming sunflowers emerging from the dark, to the contagious bubbly-childlike-joyous expression of the subject that brings light with a smile to whomever sees her.

Painting our future
Hastings, Australia
2022
This was awarded Best Outdoor Mural - Bronze, by the Australian Street Art Awards in 2022. This mural is a fantasy depiction of global warming and all about climate change and extinction of the species including ourselves, borrowing the planet and resources from our children and making a mess out of it. However, if there is life, there is hope, and consciousness is slowly being awaken towards a brighter future. The depiction of the pelicans, mangrove and orange belly parrot are as endemic as endangered elements of the Mornington peninsula area and the expression of disappointment on the kids, well, speaks for itself.

Global Warming - Mural

Gisborne, Australia

2019

Leaving a better planet for our children... what if we ALSO leave better children for our planet?? We, the global society, need a collective consciousness to bring back the balance in nature through sustainable living. Not continuing with the nonsense disposable consumerist model that is taking us to extinction. What kind of planet are we handing over to the next generation of little ones? What kind of humans are we rising up to take the responsibility of this planet? Collectively we are failing to manage and care for our home, while heavy economical interests continue to damage the balance of the planet. The temperature rises, the poles melt, the land burns and all that would be left floating will be the element upon which all else was sacrificed for.  Inspired by the truth of what really is going on with the planet, the students fight for it and how we are really passing it over to the upcoming generation of little humans.

Back to Land - Mural

Black Rock - Victoria, Australia

May 2018

 

‘Back to Land’ It’s a homecoming celebration. A reminder that all goes back to the origins, our origins and the origins of the land we walk on.As some of the most ancient creatures on this planet, sea turtles are symbolisms of wisdom, endurance, patience, peace and serenity. As they evolved to adapt to life in the sea, they always go back to the place where they were born to lay their eggs on shore. 
This is an interpretation that aims to evoke a journey of origins and culture traveling back to the land of where it all began, holding the intrinsic connection to the roots where we all emerged from, and live on.

NYLEX SILOS - MURAL

Cremorne - Melbourne, Australia

March 2018

 

Not long ago a friend asked one of his friend’s little boy what would he like to be when he grows up.”I want to be a good person”, the little boy answered. This little boy’s awareness is enlightening. At that early age, he understands already that no matter what job he does, what religion he follows, what colour, background or socio-economic status he reaches or was born with, none of that matters; what matters is to be a good person. 
I found in the simplicity of his answer, the answer to pretty much all of our current society’s problems (which are so deep that are pretty much taking us all to extinction). This artwork took almost 2 years from his conception to production and installation. I hope with it that we all get to reflect that the need for a more fair and peaceful society begins within each of us. 

Human essence is mirrored on the expressions of joy and innocence through the children’s spontaneous un-judgemental inner nature. In this work, life is portrayed in permanent motion and change through the soap bubbles and the hour glass, honouring the value of the present moment in constant interdependence with one another. Until we understand that to change our pre-conceptions is not hard at all, and that what is hard is to understand how easy it is to change; nothing will change at all.

Chromabricks

Noble Park Coloured Urban Patterns Series with Social Intentions.
A Greater Dandenong City Council Initiative.
 

Pre-fabricated in studio, handcrafted and painted, Chromobricks is an abstract sculptural work consisting of 300 individual pieces of different sizes made of wood and exterior weather resistant paint. Each “Colourbrick“ is covered in a unique colour tone within a scheme of 63 different tonalities. At the back of each brick human emotions and feelings transmitted by the colour rationale will be captured in writing; the poetic act of giving emotions to people in the form of a simple coloured souvenir.The artwork was spread in various public spaces, where the surfaces and facades were damaged or lacking of their structural elements. This was done in order to contrast the pre-existing monochrome patterns as well as to fill the urban holes with patches of human emotions and feelings. Later people were able to take home found colourbrick to place them where something was missing, if they decided there was something to fulfil with that specific colour (and emotion) at home.

Coloured Urban Patterns

Master of Art in Public Space Research Project
See book here
 

The scope of this theoretical and practical research and ongoing project is to seek and paint a series of abstract artworks in situ based on the study of values, contrasts and symbolic meanings of colour. This is done by spontaneously responding to existing architectural and infrastructural patterned forms in different public sites and places throughout Melbourne and Queenstown, New Zealand and many more cities in the near future. 

This project reveals how colour can be used to expose existing patterns within the urban fabric that typically go unnoticed
