I found this mural in a carpark in Northbridge near the Chinese quarter. It was painted by Fremantle artist Audrey Fernandes-Satar in 2012 and commissioned by the "City of Perth council".
It's entitled "Border Crossing" and between the horse's legs there's lines of poetry.

I also saw an Australian white Ibis while I was taking these photos, which I had never seen in Perth before. I had seen them in Sydney though...
I'm back from my short holiday with my Parents and will be posting shortly about our visit to Denmark (in Western Australia, not Europe!), Margaret River, etc.
Nunca tinha visto este pássaro. Que giro!
ReplyDeleteGostei muito do mural também. Gosto imenso de cavalos e gostei do contraste do preto do desenho em fundo branco.
Obrigada Sandra. Nao me parece que estes passaros sejam muito comuns em Perth, mas agora durante as nossas ferias no sul voltei a ver alguns.
Deletei love the mural and what a cute bird!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit Tanya.
DeleteSubtle mural
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit Chrissy.
DeleteGreat mural - just kinda sad it looks so "unfinished". I´ve never seen a bird like that!
ReplyDeleteOh, that was a rather short visit then!
Thanks Iris, it's quite a simple mural, maybe it's meant to look that way. We went away for 10 days, time just flew!
Delete:Look like you can just catch glimpses of other murals.
ReplyDeleteThat's true Tom, I actually hadn't noticed that! Have to go back to see what the other murals behind look like.
DeleteI like the mural. What a bonus to spot a Ibis too.
ReplyDeleteThanks LOL. I've just seen another ibis today!
DeleteWow - great mural, it would be interesting to read more of the words, let's add it to the I want to visit there when I next get to Perth!

Lol, glad you liked it Wren! Your list is growing.
DeleteA fascinating mural. Like Wandering Wren, I'm curious about what else is written on the wall. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeletePity I didn't take more photos, but with so much to read it would be difficult to piece it all together.
DeleteIt's quite a nice one Sami.. you managed to find out much more info about the artist than I did when I posted it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace. I did a bit of searching on the net.
DeleteGreat mural. I would like to see an Ibis here too, which is obviously impossible... :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jose. Maybe there's one in the Lisbon zoo?
