With this work, the artist creates an optical illusion, a beautiful moment for the viewer, or even an Instagram moment, for a visiting inner-city hipster. There are many things that unite us as humans; emotions, thoughts, feelings, and also experiences and objects. Objects like houses, plates, and grocery shops. Nearly everyone in the world has a local shop or milk bar and Birchip is no different - these shops are often the lifeline of a town and a meeting place for the community.
This artwork looks at the Birchip IGA and deconstructs the architecture of the building, creating a detailed brush and spray painted mural that brings aspects of urban life to the country, and shows that behind every wall there is a hidden world.
