The mural has been produced on a board wall which runs from the footpath beside Albany Highway to the top of the steps near Federation Parade, and was produced as part of a major redevelopment of the Gosnells city centre.
Due to the presence of walls around a water feature, elevated lawn areas and trees and other obstructions I couldn't get a photo of the whole mural in one photo, and most of the mural I couldn't even get a straight on shot, so I had to make do with multiple angled photos.
The first image shows the entire mural in wide view in three sections. The next three images show six closeups of sections of the mural.
This project involved 10 young people to celebrate the opening of the Gosnells Town Square. It was coordinated by the City’s Youth Services team with Adrian Tan and Michael Barker, two former local lads who are now well known Australian urban artists. Both men also took part in the first ever Urban Arts programme in Australia, which the City formed in 1989.
