ID: daylight panoramic photo of a two story by twenty-ish metre mural on brick wall below white clouds and blue sky, cobblestones below. On left fifth are white wavy words “UNSETTLING PORTAL / FROM THE FUTURE / TO THE PAST / VOID OF NOSTALGIA” over jelly bean squiggles of different 80s colours – pink, purple, tan, blue, yellows, browns. The remaining wall depicts a blue portal framed by graphically illustrated Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung flora including Billy Buttons, Flax Lily, Casuarina, Wattle and edged by not-quite-mirrored red gums in shades of ochre browns and a lavender sky with green leaves.
