Mural

Commissioned by Friends of the Earth, Melbourne to celebrate its 50th year anniversary. Funded by City of Yarra and Friends of the Earth.

Smith Street, Collingwood. Wurundjeri land.

ID: daytime photo of a street featuring a very colourful two story mural on side of FOE food co-op. The green circular FOE logo has become an oblong galaxy swirl orbited by planets and stars of FOE organising groups’ logos and flowers and plants of Wurundjeri land. Beside this is a randomly sized vegetable forest including broccoli, purple cauliflower, leeks, pine mushrooms, strawberry and a watermelon. Colourful hands hold up placards of colourful letters to spell “FRIENDS OF THE EARTH” and a scroll below this reads “GROWING SINCE 1973”. The Aboriginal flag floats above.
