Monday Mural - Spice Alley

I saw these murals the day I visited Cockatoo Island and later my friend and I walked to the inner Sydney area of Chippendale, near Sydney's Central Station, where we visited the "green" building - One Central Park and the Asian restaurants in Kensington Street, known as Spice Alley.

I didn't find names of the artists, but there's a big variety, some of them inside the restaurants, others in the courtyard, all with an Asian flavour. 壁画

Thanks, Sami.

  20. Brilliant, and what is not to love about well designed colourful street art!

  21. A Arte também mora nas ruas e muitas vezes criada por artistas anónimos, que nos deixam a sua mensagem em belos murais como são estes que aqui nos oferece. Embora goste de quase todos, tenho um carinho especial pelo "mural japonês":-)
    Uma boa semana!
