brunswick street project

We have finished. The panels will now be coated with a protective 2 pac and will be installed at the end of the month. Big thanks to Kenji.

Still have no idea what it will look like when installed as we have only seen a maximum of 6 panels (of 26) together at any one time.

day 5...

Now we have finished all the images. I am on holidays for a week then we add the final touches... cover the images with an 'anti graffiti coating and install it at Brunswick street. Will blog again then

day 4.....

day three...

day two...

After painting the sky and some flat colour, creating some really nice shapes we moved a few images around and decided to go with this view of the Valley mall from the front of the Empire Hotel. This space is about 12% of the total size. 

day one...

These 26 panels are compressed cement and are about 40kgs each.
