Melbourne Street Art

April 26th, 2008

Melbourne is undeniably the city of art. You see all sorts of ‘unique’ structures in Melbourne, and I think amongst the most famous ones are the Federation Square, RMIT Main Campus and all those random poles, statues and “stuff” you find on the road and in the parks.

Honestly, I’m not one to appreciate such stuff. Don’t get me wrong, some are really interesting, but it’s just not my thing. They just look pretty random to me.

What I do enjoy in Melbourne is the very random street arts in almost every single alley, small streets or lanes.

Those stuff make Melbourne city totally sick! I mean, I haven’t seen any cities painted with such cool street arts before.

Uncle Cocka’s potrait!!!!

What I find even more amusing is, if you look at each “graffiti” or wall carefully, you might be able to pick up the artist’s message behind the art.

I colour enhanced, dragged the curves and burned the pictures pretty brutally, thus the fierce colours. :P It’s called experiment!

You can probably tell towards the last few pictures, I got lazy editing the pictures. My laptop wasn’t very happy with me and decided to go really slow and that was annoying!

    I saw vandalism when I first saw the graffiti in Gold Coast, but later learn to appreciate the artsy ones.
