Australia’s uber talented street artists came together to paint a mammoth 50 metre wall in the street art hub of Fitzroy, located on the Rear of Fry’s Storage, on Cecil Street and organised by our buddies over the pond Juddy Roller.
Artists invited to take on the challenge were; Rone, Adnate, Sofles, Heesco, Dvate, Cam Scale and Jason Parker. Each artist, all unique in style, had a creative license to paint a dedicated section of the wall, with the only limitation being that all artworks need to be portrait based, dubbed the Fitzroy’s faces.
“I’m really thrilled that we have managed to curate a line up of such heavy hitters in the industry. These guys are the best of the best, and they are constantly travelling the world, so to get the all here in the one place for one week to complete this mural is a really exciting.” Shaun Hossack, Juddy Roller Director
