Maroubra, mural
This mural of a Toucan in the jungle is on a shed at the former Maroubra Bowling Club along Malabar Road, in the eastern suburb of Maroubra. The site is no longer used for lawn bowls but the "Bowlo" recreation club is still in operation. Plans to redevelop the site into a health care facility have been submitted to the local council.
Interesting that they chose a toucan which is found in Central and South America, rather than a bird native to Australia.
ReplyDeleteNIce mural!
best... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Mae, I did wonder what the relevance was. Maybe the artist is South American.
Delete...and what's with 'Few Kool Cats?'
ReplyDeleteTom, I googled the name and apparently they are an infamous graffiti gang in Sydney so I'd say this artwork is completely illegal.
DeleteIllegal artwork is what you find to say... 90% here, I´d say.
DeleteUnusual but very beautiful, cheery mural!
I'm not against these works in certain places if they look like this sort of artwork. Just as long as they're not vandalising property or public transport.
DeleteNice mural!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and colourful! I hope they keep the mural when they redevelop the site. Thanks for participating Jim.
ReplyDeleteStill a nice mural Jim.
ReplyDeleteIllegal though it might be, it's still crossing the line from graffiti into street art.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Jim!
ReplyDeleteI like it, Jim!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteSomeday I want to see a toucan in person. In the meantime, this art will do.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the site has been cleared in preparation for the health care facility.
