Melbourne’s first official street art precinct saw the participation of some of the top street artists from Australia and around the world, including Celeste Mountjoy, Smug, Adnate, Berlin-based Blo, French artist Zoer, and George Rose.

The mural showcases Adnate’s interpretation of an ancient symbol of peace, the white dove, which has been used by many cultures throughout history as a powerful emblem of hope, purity, and freedom.

In his rendition, Adnate breaks through the peace symbol, symbolising the idea that peace cannot be achieved without effort and struggle.
