Redfern Murals in Sydney for Mural Monday

 





I traversed the entirety of the suburb of Redfern in Sydney, a locale steeped in historical and cultural significance. Once the heart of Sydney’s working-class life and a focal point of Indigenous activism, Redfern has evolved into a vibrant precinct known for its rich artistic expression. Among its many features, I encountered a number of compelling murals—visual testaments to both its heritage and contemporary spirit. The winter solstice, which fell yesterday, brought with it a biting chill, and the air was sharp with the austere beauty of the season.

  11. I like these murals. I think it's been rather chilly over your way, more so than Launceston at times.

  15. Every major city has a neighborhood where the art scene is a bit more present than elsewhere but you have to know where to find it. Tip usually not in the most expensive neighborhoods but rather the other way around.
