faces of Adnate

Posted on by

While walking in Fitzroy yesterday, I saw this face of a young aboriginal man that was just painted by street artist Adnate.

part of a larger mural, a street art painting of an aboriginal young man's face with white markings on his face, newly painted by Adnate in Melbourne (Fitzroy) with orange cones in front so that people don't walk in front of it.

It is part of a larger mural painted in collaboration with street artist Serum.

newly painted mural in progress, on the side of a house, beside a sidewalk that is roped off. A face by Adnate and a bird head by serum.

below: I have seen a number of these portraits around Melbourne including this one high above Hosier Lane.  This lane is filled with graffiti and street art and it is the lane that tourists come to see.  I wonder how many of them look up far enough to see the face?

Large mural of the face of an Australian aboriginal boy painted by Adnate in Melbourne - high on a wall overlooking Hosier Lane and all it's graffiti and tourists.

below: Back to Fitzroy where I have seen this large mural a couple of times now.  Both times, the combination of the height of the building and the location of the sun has made taking a picture of it challenging.
