Melbourne Street Art

Let’s take a walk with Graffiti

Something common in Melbourne but unique to the others is the Street Art. I have no idea about the history of artists in Melbourne, but I’m pretty sure they are good at vandalizing buildings with creative Graffiti! It’s no surprise to find a striking patch of Graffiti when you enter a dark, dirty alley around Melbourne - you’ll find yourself stunned since they are so cool!!

Last year around October, Street Graffiti was legalized in Melbourne as there are too many ‘noobs’ around the city who illegally design vandalize monikers on buildings, alleys, train stations and public toilets with colourful spray. Throughout all these years, the problems got so big that it’ll cost millions of dollars to clean up those vandalized streetscapes. So, the idea was to replace the amateur art pieces with new ‘pro’ graffiti. As in the street culture, it is impolite to deface another artist’s graffiti finished work and somehow it works. Regardless of that culture, I think no one will bear to dirt these masterpieces.

Along an alley is the graffiti of movie Princess Mononoke (Anime Movie made in 1997 by Hayao Miyazaki aka the director of Spirited Away)



Then we monkey around the wall with tree spirits like idiots
