Curtain Rd., East London

A short and simple blog post.  Just two pieces of street art from Curtain Road, and both can be seen from the same spot.

Collins street women

Two large murals featuring women’s faces can been seen on Little Collins street just east of Exhibition street.  Both were painted by street artist Rone.  The most prominent mural is 12m high and can easily be seen from the street.

below: Slightly back from the street is a smaller mural with the faces of three more women.  Most of Rone’s work features women’s faces.
