Wallism_November





Take a drive one weekend around the rapidly changing gentrified, once light-industrial area of Wickham in Newcastle NSW.  
Turning down one small street and up the next was a constant delight with the discovery of one mural after another.
Who does these? Don’t know.
Why do they do them? For the joy of creating something beautiful, witty, loud, I guess.
The walls of the converted factories are groaning with huge murals and images that have been conceived, considered and constructed with great energy and execution.
Exciting!
