In AC/DC Lane, that narrow artery of the city where walls speak in colour and wit, a certain piece of three-dimensional street art has long held quiet renown—its illusion bending the eye, its presence anchoring the restless flow of passersby.
Yet of late, a harsher narrative has intruded upon this precinct of urban expression. Reports have emerged—carried with due gravity across the broadcasts of Television—that unruly youths, in careless defiance, have kindled fires within nearby establishments, unsettling both trade and tranquillity. The flame, once a symbol of creative fervour in this lane of music and mural, has in such acts been rendered destructive, its glow no longer poetic but perilous.
Thus the scene stands in uneasy contrast: art that conjures depth from flatness, inviting wonder; and, not far removed, a disturbance that strips away civility, leaving only the stark outline of consequence.

This is a great photo.
ReplyDeleteEls carrers ja ho tenen això, hi pots trobar art i altres coses bones, com "els de sempre" que cerquen només el fer mal per fer mal.
ReplyDeleteSalutacions,
That mural really ‘stands out’ so to speak. Too bad about the fires.
ReplyDeleteUn excelente mural con una triste realidad de incivismo a su alrededor
ReplyDeleteA favorite band since the mid 1970s.
ReplyDeleteThat is a remarkable work of art. I can see why the lane is named for this art work. Good find and great photo.

ReplyDeleteEste mural dedicado al cantante del grupo ACDC da la impresión de estar realizado en tres dimensiones.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
It is horrid what some teenage boys can do when they all get together. This is a good sculpture! Although I must say it looks a bit more like Robert Plant.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great work. I must have seen it but I can't remember it now.

ReplyDeleteA great 3D mural. We have a statue of Bon Scot in Fremantle. How awful and sad about the unruly youngsters. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals.
